Between freelancers, so many innovative tech startups, and the amount of people starting successful online businesses either selling products or doing some kind of internet marketing, I foresee a dramatic change in the way these employers operate in the next 10-20 years.

These employers are becoming obsolete and they know it. It's time for them to make a choice: adapt or die.
I agree. It won't be long before things change for people and the way employers are. They will eventually be forced to realize that they can't just fire people for the slightest reason or no no reason or else they will crumble.
