Yes, but there are two factors. One is the "pride of the Contractor", which makes them want to use their power no matter what. The other is that contractors are unlikely to be left alone. There'll always be someone trying to exploit them, which reduces the possibilities of them living in peace.
I'm sure there are a few discreet ones out there, but they won't appear in the story precisely because they're so boring. As for the others, who were found out as contractors... Well, the choice's basically working for an organisation, or being blackmailed by them.
