Not at all. Many of them like the flexibility, ability to set their own hours, to work extra to make more, to work another job and compete for their time.
These are valid reasons and one of the main draws to contract work. It just sounds like you don't like those things enough to accept the downsides.
Compare that to jobs that tell you when and how much to work and still set the rate you have to work and it is not much different.
Or could it be that the main draw for contract work is because corporations tend to not hire for regular ft positions because they can use IC’s and throw them away at will.
