I'm not sure why you are getting downvoted as you are totally correct.

It's a case of rules for thee and not for me.

It is an uneven power balance between corporations and workers.

Then the solution is obvious: Workers should incorporate and sell their work under that corporate banner.

That's not the obvious solution.

A better solution for example would be giving the workers tools and knowledge to get what they want just from their job (because everyone is different).

But then they'd still be workers and not corporations, and thus subject to the power imbalance spoken of earlier. Perhaps we could simply assign everyone a corporation at birth? Then it doesn't even have to be an active activity.
What's wrong with being a worker? That doesn't mean in and of itself, that there is a power imbalance. Companies need workers, it is a two way street.
