His actions took from others who took from us. The profits from that inventory were going to to a tiny slice of humanity that didn't earn it, don't deserve it, and would take more if they could. They could have avoided all of it by taking less profit at the top, and spreading it among those who actually did the work and earned it, but the only consideration was how to take even more from the workers. They already took so much that it inspired one of their workers to burn it all down.

He didn't kill anyone, at least nobody innocent, he just burned their MONEY. That's what hurts them the most.
