      The only way to create wealth is via work, e.g., income. It’s not a perfect measure, I concede, since wealth is static and can accumulate over time. However, I think we can still use it as a rough estimation of stolen income over time.

      However, this source claims there is a 70% gap between wages and produced value. That roughly matches the number I gave.
