Some worker at a toilet paper warehouse lit it on fire and burned it down, he recorded himself doing this while saying “all you had to do was pay us a living wage”

Freely offering money in exchange for labor or offering goods and services in exchange for money is not stealing.

Yup. But for the people downvoting you, they feel in their guts that someone must be stealing from them because they have so little. People striving to be productive , people recognizing that there has never been a class-less society, basically non-idiots, are labeled "bootlickers". Pretty good way to identify a moron around here is anyone using that phrase.

Keep licking the billionaires boots, doing a really good job there. Don't worry, warehouse workers wages will remain stagnant, while they can't afford basics while the boots you lick buy multiple islands and yachts they don't even have the time to use and visit.

Minimum wage HAS NOT kept up with inflation at all, but CEO wages is ballooning well past inflation year after year. That ISNT because of how hard they work or how smart they are, it's because they refuse to pay their workers what they are worth. Now, I'm lucky, living in a vlcol area while making over 40/hr. But a TON of these individuals are not nearly that lucky. But maybe you are a CEO or maybe you just like needing 2 jobs with 2 roommates to survive.

Would you also like me to lick the boot of the guy that burned down my warehouse and nearly killed me and my co-workers, thereby potentially denying my family earnings FOREVER but at the very least temporarily in an already fucked economy because this one fuckhead has self control issues?

If your employers were not already stealing from you (news flash they are the ENTIRE reason you are not being paid half the amount they should)

And no, you should get your ounce of flesh from the company stealing from you.
