A new hot-button topic, corporate personhood, has the Left aflutter and the Right taking to the trenches. Neither knows much about the history of the US corporation, or understands it. It is an evil construct, and the fine Marxist Harvard professor Morton Horwitz took it apart, among other things, in his book The Transformation of American Law - 1790 to 1860. If you want to understand reality read a Marxist, not these lightweight progressives and their silly self-referential panics.
Unless you understand what you are talking about, you will not make much progress. As a Marxist, Horwitz gets his facts straight, as Marxists usually do. It is their prescriptions that fall short. Read Marxists, skip the last paragraph.
Corporations and big govt working together, by definition fascism, has ruined the American economy. Society has rotted in the wake of the economic ruin. The ruined America is what both the left and right want to preserve. Both the left and right want to continue the wars, spying, bailouts, death squads, drug control, prison planet, pollution, etc. They just argue over who gets to be in charge of it all.
What to do about it? The fascists ruined the USA economy with their central planning. The only path to recovery is a renaissance in self-employment. Self-employment is the bane of every central planner.
You already know your pension is forfeit, your property will be taxed into worthlessness and your paycheck is being inflated away. Come government healthcare, your life will be forfeit too, as a pensioner you become cheaper to kill than to keep. You think that is extreme? Let's hear from a leading playwrite and thinker of the side that won WWII.
Being self-employed, and independently productive, will keep you happy, healthy and off the lists of the "non-productive." You'll pay cash for your health needs, and be self-supporting. But for right now, you have a job, and for whatever reason cannot make a transition. Well, you can, by transforming to "self-employed in place."
Right now you think of your employer as the source of your paycheck, healthcare, etc. Change your mind. See your employer as a customer of yours, not your employer. See yourself as a supplier to your employer, not an employee. Behave as if your employer were a customer.
Just how much value can you give your customers? What can you do for them that helps them succeed more than they would without you? How can they get as much value from you for as little money as possible? This is how the self-employed see themselves in relation to their customers. Start thinking that way now.
The problem is you might get a raise and promotion which may get you to stick around. Maybe, and that would be a tragedy. Nothing could be worse than success in corporate america. More likely, you will think up a business for you to start sooner, better, and leave faster. Self-employment is personal transformation, and you can start right now, in spite of being a wage-slave. It is in your head.

Good stuff!
Not bad advice. Suffice it to say though, it does help to have experience into the field which you want to start a venture. I have met some employers that do encourage their employees to start their own paths.
good point about how Corporate success entices employees to remain working for other's dreams.
Another trap against moving into Self Employment is accumulating too much useless debt with TVs, newest cars, clothes, vacations that are placed on the Credit Card.
Too much wrong debt will keep a person working as an employee to pay the bills.
