If an officer steals, he must be fired. Otherwise, what kind of re-education of society can we talk about?

If an official has stolen, he must sit like any thief. Moreover, the question of returning the confiscation of property has long been raised, and not only the thief himself, but also his close relatives. Only then can we talk about re-education.
At the same time, the deputies should have the main place of work somewhere in the production, and “deputate” for free, then we will have much less in legislation, and the pensions for the elderly will not need to be frozen.
