Why shouldn't we steal?

Just a question. Why shouldn't you steal? Apparently, only about 10% of the population will come up with some sort of abstract moral reasoning to explain why we shouldn't steal. The rest will say something akin to, "Because we get in trouble," or, "Because it's against the law." Why shouldn't you steal? Edit: I'm an ardent supporter of property rights. I'm not implying that that theft is moral.

  • Because I personally don't want people stealing from me so I enter a social contract that in return for not stealing others shouldn't steal either and breach of contract can lead to jail. Boring explanation and not my only reason, but that's one concept I can think of.
