How is the comparison disingenuous? The point is that the attention that different types of theft receive is disproportionate to how much is stolen in aggregate

- leetcrew 6y agothe linked article is comparing robbery and wage theft based only on the dollar value stolen. by definition, robbery is theft that involves (the threat of) physical violence. when I worked in restaurants, I had a boss that would routinely reach into our tip jar to pay himself back for mistakes we made. it fucking sucked, but not nearly as much as having someone threaten to end your life on the spot.
