It is stunning to me that such well educated and hard working people would want to work in such a corrupt system instead of striking out on their own for the betterment of society.

A poverty wage is more livable than no wage at all; most adjunct faculty don't have the financial security to do some sort of revolutionary startup, and there are also only so many "radical" ideas that would attract investment from moneyed interests / hold the promise of huge profit.
