The Corporate System is the current economic totalitarianism in which it's pretty much impossible to stay afloat without corporate blessing.
This has never been the case. Large corporations do not employ the majority of people.

Firms with 250+ employees have been slightly >50% since 1996.

37.4% of employees are at firms of 1000+, 6.8% are 500-999, 7.2% are 250-499.
So either the numbers I remembered were a bit outdated, or were using a higher cutoff than 250 (probably 500, since I remember it being not that much less than 50% working at "large" corporations).
