A lot of people seem to have a (perhaps intuitively based) sense of repulsion at the thought of being a "wage slave." This repulsion seems to be part of the reason for the popularity of The Zeitgeist Movement and collectivist ideas. Of course, there's no reason to think that the employer/employee model will be the dominant one in a free society. I personally believe the dominant model is likely to be one wherein everybody is a contractor and people hire a bunch of contractors to complete their projects. The person hiring on one project might be a contractor on the next project they work on--it would be a question of expertise and vision. Anyhow, the point I'm trying to make is maybe libertarians can do a better job of taking advantage of this discontent with the current system. For the record, I don't actually believe that "structural violence" and "wage slave" are helpful terms--I was just being provocative in my post title.
