I expect that they will expect more time wasted in this, now that people do not have jobs. Everyone that does not put in at least an honest 200 hours a month in field circus will be suspected of having assets that can be appropriated into the communal supply (money, food, silver and/or gold, cleaning supplies, face masks, and so on). And they will need verification that they did in fact waste the 200 hours writing letters, not just typing a letter and printing dozens of copies or sending spam through the email system (to save a stamp).
And, once the lockdowns end (when everyone has their coronavirus shot and microchip), they will simply do one final push to round up the energy to enslave the whole world. At which point, it has served its real purpose. And then we will all be dragged off to work to live miserable lives, worse than the first Dark Ages and this time with no chance of an end.
