A small word about federal licenses
Surprisingly, the federal licensing bureaucracy only touches on businesses that operate across state lines or involve specific operations, leaving a great majority of businesses free of the hefty bane of federal red tape. The following government agencies require a federal license:

FDA - http://www.fda.gov: meat processors, drugs

Department of Transportation, Federal Highway Administration - http://www.fhwa.dot.gov: interstate delivery people

SEC - http://www.sec.gov: investment services

FCC - http://www.fcc.gov: radio and TV stations

Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms - http://www.atf.treas.gov: tobacco products, alcohol, firearms

Bureau of Export Administration -- http://www.bxa.doc.gov: export licenses
