My retarded excuse for a friend thinks that robbery isn't giving someone money that's rightfully theirs. Like getting on a bus where you gotta pay the driver money, but instead you don't, and just take the ride anyways. On a scale of 1 to 10, how wrong is he?

1 Obviously. That's only a reason he's giving for been a cheapskate lazy fuck.

robbery is taking by force, not withholding by dickery.

It's tough to say.
My analogy is like "stealing" music online. You're not actually robbing the music from the artist, they still have their music, and now you have yours.
The difference is that when you steal a bus ride, you're not only failing to pay fairly to use and fund the bus and the driver, but you're also depriving someone else of a bus ride in that seat/space. I'd say that qualifies as thievery and is thus robbery. But it's definitely pretty grey.

any time you take anything you are taking it by force. the only alternative is being given something.

It is technically "theft of services" and is illegal (and punished) in exactly the same way taking someone's goods or money is.

Robbery is already predefined in your land's common law
This scenario is more of fare evasion
