Anyone who doesn't work for themselves is getting their labor stolen, and that includes me. The name for this type of systemic crime is "capitalism."

    Not if you are being compensated for your labour. The actual crime that describes stolen labour is "slavery"

    I think you could make an argument that being compensated for your labour, but way under the value your labour produces and also under the constant threat of homelessness and starvation if you don't do it is still an unethical system.
