Giving the economy the way it is today, don't you think the title of the thread is misleading?
I mean, companies would rather hire a freelancer per project or per day, as opposed to commit to paying full employee benefits without knowing how things are going to turn out on their business..
I mean, numbers show the freelancers have been only increasing in numbers in the past 5 or 6 years..

just a quick search on google will make lots of valid counterpoints to the assumption of the death of freelance, when in fact is more alive than ever, and with a growing number of communication technologies, easier access, shows that its most likely going to keep growing.
so the real question is...
where you being ironic?
