The slow and steady amassing of wealth, done in an unscrupulous manner.
He used all of the white collar cons, such as bribes, bluffs, well-timed and profitable bankruptcies, inciting violence while posing as a protector of all-American principles, even ascension to the office of the US President, knowing that this last example is likely the most lucrative demonstration of the Art of the Steal.

To replace another as a third wheel. Usually done against the will of the original third wheeler. The logical extension of the cock block to third wheeling.
I was going to go with Ryan and Molly to the movies but they went with Josh instead. I can't believe Josh would wheel steal me like that.

A book considered by some to be in the same vein as the Anarchist Cookbook but far less malicious in nature, Steal this Book was a guide to conning in most aspects of life. Steal this Book detailed methods for stealing just about anything including food, clothes, furniture, and even housing.

Everything the average hippie-on-the-street had to know to survive without working could be found in a copy of Steal this Book, all the methods were tried and true. It's a shame few of them work nowadays.
Don't be a sucker, grab your Steal this Book and figure out how to get your dinner for free.

A game played in Harlem in which teams try to grab an object and get back to base without being tagged.
Teams line up, facing one another, about 30 feet apart. The object (e.g. a stick) is placed at the mid-point between the two lines. A "caller" stands to the side and calls out players by number, by odds or evens, or "all in" and the designated players run to the middle, each trying to STEAL THE BACON (grab the stick) and run back to their line without being tagged by an opposing player. Hours of fun.
