>stolen from them

Do you seriously hold onto the idea in your head that modern workers even do things that have substantial value over and above what their wages are, independent from the value that said efforts *gain* by being "plugged into" the organizations that they work for?

It's nonsensical to describe it as "stealing". Their value is *increased exponentially* by being organized into a coherent work effort, by leadership that adopts more responsibility and an organization that both arranges for that exponential increase and assumes the risks associated with the chance that it fails. Wage workers aren't living in bondage and collecting a subsistence-pittance - they're doing things like pushing papers and buttons that are, inherently, virtually worthless, and they're being given the lion's share of the value which that effort gains by being given to the organization they give it to.
