The answer to your issue isn't to reduce the penalties for career criminals, it is to increase the penalties for the other people that are getting far too light of a sentence.
By your rules, eventually all crimes would be reduced to nothing since we can't be too harsh for some.
I agree with your second paragraph. 30 years for theft, when a pedophile gets 1 year is ludicrous. I would like to see murderers and pedophiles executed. They are worthless to society and can’t be rehabilitated.
