Conspicuously absent are tax avoidance and fraud (insider trading and whatever soon to be illegal scam fintech dreams up, currently AI circlejerk for example), which likely gives wage theft a serious run for it’s money (boom boom), and as u/minorkeys says, labour value theft is where the capital comes from.

Tax avoidance is legal. When it's illegal it's called tax evasion.
