No, The Market Won't Sort It Out

Worshipers of the Invisible Hand have seriously proposed that people should become corporations and sell shares in themselves to raise funds to invest in their education.

That's effectively a way of selling a fraction of yourself into slavery. A few may become successful, while many become controlled by their shareholders. The rich who own the shares will dominate the decisions about the laws to regulate this system.

The book, The Unincorporated Man by Kollin and Kollin, describes a future world in which this has happened. The people in that world are used to the system and defend it, but at the end we see that forces everyone to be partly owned by whoever buys stock in them.
