Where all the money goes

Here's a good example from the LA Times:

I find this to be repulsive: capitalism and property rights "entitle" the owner to a life of opulence, while condemning the rest of us to a life of squalor. And heaven forbid that the common people ever be "entitled" to the Social Security investment that was forced from their paychecks and then stolen by the US Congress.

Why is one form of theft protected, while another is criminalized?
