It's better if you're one of the very small percentage of people that want to run their own micro-company instead of just do their job. What you listed sounds like a ton of overhead (mental and otherwise) for the vast majority of jobs.
- KaoruAoiShiho 13y agoI don't agree. What we have now are people being trained to not think like entrepreneurs and view the system as scary and risky. If everyone becomes entrepreneurs, remove the social ostracization, and I think you'll find that everyone is suited for it. The mental overhead is different but not increased (obviously it's all up to the execution, and I don't really have proof for my opinion). I can see software, non-software services, and different cultural practices reduce the overhead of current contractor systems. Moreover it's naive to assume that the overhead involved in being a normal employee is any less than that of being a contractor. The office politics that most people have to deal with is asinine, and could benefit from the type of legal clarification that being a contractor would entail.
