It'd give everyone an eye opening realisation of what it takes to be in business an destroy the "you can afford more, give me more wages" mentality of morons.
Except it wouldn't - if everyone was an independant contractor, any IP they create would be held by them (as they are independant) thus if Company X didn't want to pay them a higher contractor Fee, they could approach company Y, armed with their IP that is used by Company X - ask Company Y for a higher amount (and in return divulge information on the competitor Company X) In most cases where Independant Contractors are used - there are various clauses about working for competitors and having a cool-down period of 6 months, however if Everyone was a contractor - that would have to be removed (unless someone wants to pay me for not working for 6 months...)
So people would get paid for their knowledge, and skills. I don't see a problem with that
