A poor clothing maker brings his goods to the local market. He thinks to himself "I hope that my products will sell today, for I have spent hours making them and my family is hungry." With a determined smile on his face, he enters the market and sets up his shop. Hoping that customers will come and buy his goods. A man comes up to him, and spits on the clothing maker's face, laughing to himself and staring at his products.
He then holds up the shirts that the man is selling, and duplicates them, so that he has a copy of the same exact shirt that the man spent so much time making. He then goes to the middle of the market and tosses the shirts in the street, for the greedy to grab up and run home with.
The man who made the shirts gets little to no money, and he goes home to a ugly family with no way to feed them.
This analogy works perfectly with piracy. You are worse than thieves.
