The thing being lost in the comedy is that pretty much everything coming out of Gollin's pit-sniffing pie hole is a lie. A fake medical degree doesn't entitle the holder to practice medicine. Even people with real degrees can't practice medicine unless they fulfill licensing requirements. Practicing medicine without a license is a crime already, even if the fake practitioner has a real degree.
This is obviously just more of his socialist propaganda, for the purpose of establishing even greater government control over higher education. His ultimate purpose is to eliminate any vestiges of non-conforming doctrines (i.e., Christianity) from higher education.
Gollin thinks (apparently correctly, so far) that government dimwits and socialist drones don't realize that the government already controls licensing of, e.g., doctors, engineers, lawyers, etc.
In fact, entry into just about every skilled trade not controlled by the unions is controlled by the government. Ask your barber. People in the real world get this, but academicians, politicians, "community organizers," and those others who are not remotely in touch with reality do not.
He's saying "stop fake doctors from killing people," but what he really means is "stop private enterprise from competing with the government-controlled billionaire cartel." Real doctors kill more people than fake doctors, so obviously fake doctors are not the issue. The issue is private institutions (frequently religion-based) who march to their own drummers and aren't beholden to Big Brother. That's what he hates, that's what he fears, that's what he is trying to destroy.
