I'm not sure I agree that people are worth more than stuff.
Everything I own represents part of my life I had to expend to acquire it, and this can never be gotten back. A $500 television thus represents days of my life. My $28,000 car represents months of my life. How much value do you put on a day of your life? A month?
There are not many thieves that I would find stealing my "stuff" that I would find worth more than a day of my life.
Finally, the thief sets the value of his own life. If he decides that his life is worth a television, or some other "stuff", so be it - I won't question his judgment on that matter.
