That is ONE DANGED LIE!...
I have read many of your and Senior Judges postings and some of them are informative and interesting, and some of them are comical.

None of them are informative!

You seem to think that your right to independence somehow overrides THEIR right to run their business as they see fit. Funny thing is that you have no absolute RIGHT to work there in the first place!I would also have to respectfully disagree with you. I have read many of your and Senior Judges postings and some of them are informative and interesting, and some of them are comical, but never the less, the whole point of being an Independent Contractor, is being allowed to operate Independently, if you restrict my right to work somewhere or for someone I am no longer Independent.
I am not saying I can just show up at some random club and demand to work the club. Most comedy clubs have an open door policy to a comic once they have at least Hosted there before, this club in particular has allowed me to do Hosting sets, guest sets, and has even allowed me to shoot my DVD there. They are mad at me simply because I helped out a comic that they don't like, and that's where my argument of "I should be able to work where ever I want, whenever I want" comes from, not from a sense of arrogance, but because I am an Independent Contractor and not their employee.
It only makes sense that someone working for Coke cant go work part time at Pepsi, that's an employee and they don't have the right to go work for Pepsi if they want, because of exclusivity.
You can disagree all day long, but that doesn't change the fact that under the law, whether you are an independent contractor or an employee, the employer isn't obligated by the law to contract you for hire or keep you hired. As long as the employer isn't violating your rights under Title VII, the employer can do and say as they please. From what I have read of this post you tend to be the one with a "sense of arrogance."I would also have to respectfully disagree with you.

Feel free to unionize.I would also have to respectfully disagree with you.
