    The labour theory of value is completely compatible with everything you just said.

    10 workers do 1 value worth of work on product, whether that be manufacturing, shipping, logistics, marketing, so on

    boss pays them 0.5 value each

    boss sells for 10

    boss lives off the stolen 5 value

    I am posing this in the most abstract simple way possible. Obviously in an actual supply chain, many bosses would be stealing different amounts of value all throughout the process, as each worker added value to the final product over time.
