In what circumstances would robberies and thieving be considered morally justifiable?

now, it makes sense to me that if anyone were to hypothetically steal from a large corporation that wouldn’t be bad, it’s a bit more questionable if it’s a small business, given that they are much smaller than the mega corporations of the world but then again, the small business owners would probably still be considered petty bourgeois.

But what about a home burglary? To me, in my mind I feel like that comes with a lot more dependable contexts and reasons. Like, for example would it be morally justifiable if someone in poverty were to burglarize someone’s house, if this person is like middle income.

I also see many parallels with this for someone joining the US military, because I’m sure that many of you would agree that it’s morally bad to join the US military regardless of their economic status.

does this go the same way if someone were to break into someone’s house and steal their stuff regardless of economic background? or are there more layers of context to this?
