>I could live with the idea of japanese-style corporation, where loyalty goes both ways. It would be logical then to accept the idea of sharing in a system where others will share with you.

IMO there are very few companies even in Japan who are truly like this anymore.

A social contract is a good thing, but I don't need a corporation. I can make a free choice.

Yet even if I like the concept of workers being compensated at their marginal productivity, it's a sad thing this choice will no longer exist for most of the people who are now graduating, and that entrepreneurship becomes a choice by default.

Diversity (as in having many choices - to work for a big company or for yourself) usually is a good thing.

Of course, you may still work for a big company, but if you know you are to be poorly treated anyway, while bother doing more than the bare minimum? If you have a good idea, why bother sharing its profits?
