From the material of the employer? Which article of the penal code do you mean?
Only the court decided whether to apply confiscation in each case. Confiscation was not mandatory and was applied only to grave and exceptionally grave crimes. Commiting a venal crime was not an automatic reason for confiscation. Confisctaion could be not only of the whole property but also of 1/2, 1/3 or any other part of the property of the offender.
Confiscation of the excess or of the whole property? This is bullshit. Producing something in excess of a norm is not a crime against property like theft. It could not be qualified as a grave crime unless the volume of the damage was enormous. Do you have any reference to such a case? What year it was, what was the volume of damage and what part of property was confiscated?
I also did not find any reference about that such norm that limited production ever existed.
Any confiscated property went to the state, not to nomenclature. In the USSR even among nomenclature were no rich people even comparable to today's medium-successful businessman.Well, that's not entirely true. The nomenclature had it all by confiscating property from other people.
Possibly, and what? This just means the investigation did not succeed to trace where the property gone.That's very sad. Like I said, if the personal belongings had been registered under the name of the thief's relative, they weren't confiscated as well by the Soviet State leading to the similar situation on the smaller scale.
Soviet laws were favorable to enterprises where all the participants worked themselves and collectively owned the means of production. Such enterprises were never prohibited.I think that addresses a different concern. The Soviet Laws prohibited even the small enterprises. Had any of the enterprises been legally allowed, some of them would pay taxes and some of them would evade it.
