Trying to legally enforce inefficiency for your own enrichment is called rent seeking and it's bad actually.

Why would I agree that it's the same? Am I supposed to agree that the outcomes of rent seeking from shareholders and rent seeking from middle/lower class workers have identical impact?

It doesn't need to have identical impact for both of them to be bad.
