You are so very, very wrong, on all accounts.
Most comics would never even think about stealing a joke, as they fully understand just how detrimental it is to their reputation and career. It completley ruined people like Carlos Mencia, who's ticket sales dropped 90% after he was exposed. And legends like Dave Attell is famous for calling up several other comics, just to double- and triple-check that nobody else has done a picece similar to a new joke he's just written.
Amy Schumer on the other hand (whom BTW has stolen many a joke from Dave Attell) always choses to play the victim, and claiming pepole only hate her "because I'm a woman" when she's continued to be caught stealing jokes, time after time after time. Which only makes her out to be even more of a disgusting human being.

First of all, the vast majority of comedy careers don't go any further than the club circuit (and maybe a fringe/just4laughs gig) where nobody gives a shit and in fact half the comics do the same or very similar material quite by accident.
Secondly. Amy's career is doing great. And so did Dennis Leary's despite a huge chunk of his entire act being "inspired" by Bill Hicks who greatly emulated Kinnison's act.
Yes it's because Schumer is a woman that dipshits routinely complain that she alone 'gets away with it and it's because she's a woman'. How can it not be?
