What? It's a moral failure to have an issue with people shoplifting from Walgreens? Do you think they're stealing milk, eggs, and bread?

And your types are the same that would see a cashier who steals $100 go to jail....

But a manager who edits timecards of 10 people for $100 ($1000 damage) is just a civil matter.

Crime, and who punishes it, has always been a political matter. The crimes have never been equal for those with power other others.
