Every game with squad does not work like this, for the simple that otherwise all the strongest player would just create a squad an beat the rest of the world.
Bad logic, this ain't soccer, this is an imaginary war between mercenary corporations. What do mercenaries do? They sell themselves to whoever is paying the price they ask.
While I've given people sh!t for using ringers (what, your corp ain't good enough to do it on their own?), there is nothing wrong with ringers. The problem I see from the people complaining about it is that they're not good enough to beat whoever gets in the way and refuse to pay for or can't afford the people that are. Stopping ringers ain't going to help you any with that once all these ringers you can't beat form their own corp so they can start making ISK again.

This is a game, soccer is only an example of a squad game, i could have used volley, basketball or every other squad sport where players are paid to play, while you are under a contract with one team you can't play for another, it's the same damn thing.
Well none of those sports have "squads" but that's irrelevant. You are very correct about this being a game; now, what makes people enjoy games? Immersion, and locking mercenaries into a corp to be able to fight in any given battle kind of ruins immersion. Also, very few corporations in New Eden require you to sign a long term contract (I personally never seen any myself) to work with them. I know every contract I've accepted has been on a per battle basis.

Because right now they don't need to.

Not if CCP finally gives us the rest of New Eden or at least some more of it instead of keeping us confined to Molden Heath. Hell, MH has 245 districts so if every other region had at least that much we would have 15,680 districts to be fighting over. The scope of PC has always been one of its core problems as far as I can see. Why did the Blue Donuts come into existence? Because there wasn't enough districts to thin out their resources. Why do low tiered corpmates just warm up the bench? Because when a corp wants to keep or take a district it'll only use low tiered players if it has to but they don't have to because again they're not even straining their resources.
Why do so few control PC? Because subjugating a single village (region) is easier and requires less resources than subjugating the whole kingdom (universe) and right now PC is limited to being a village.
