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.
Total wages paid are a bit over half of gdp. 55% is notably quite a bit more than 15%. Think I had gdp from a different year than wages, still closer to accurate than 85%

That is not what that data is or says.
158 is not 30% of 285 for starters.
