I mean, that's actually how it works, only the people who produce most value are the workers, and the people who receive most of it are the capital owners.

So is a drug dealer. Or a con artist. Among many others.
The state exists in part to regulate what is allowed or not.
Babysitters, Local tradespeople, their clients, etc and so forth benefit from it.
