because doctors keep prescribing medicines that were invented in 1950s...
and civil engineers keep maintaining bridges and skyscrappers with their 1940s knowledge...
Also how about an age limit and a qualification requirement for politician? If a 80 year old politician can make decisions that affect a whole nation, why whine about a PhD who is harmless and perhaps stops with publishing some research paper in a remote journal? Where are the priorities?

Pointing out certain group of people(like doctors or civil engineers) is not good. I agree with the idea of training the people to acquire better knowledge and to keep in touch with latest technologies. Education and learning these not measured by the degrees. It's a life long process. Experience teaches a lot than degree. Expiry date for degree is nothing but expiry date for experience which sounds odd
