Corps would rather hire you as a contractor exactly because free enterprise is taught in America.
Milton Freeman made a famous speech where he decried that any businessman who doesn't maximize returns to the shareholders is violating the ethics of the "free enterprise" system. That speech was coincidentally timed about the time wages stopped rising for US workers.
