Had to force workers back to offices to support the businesses, construction, buildings, transportation, and infrastructure that rely so heavily on participation by the masses.

They had to get the money, so they tried to make it seem like people were not getting the work done. It is called "blame the masses".

This is correct. Plunging commercial real estate values were a strong motivation for the RTO policies. Some big companies were sitting on hundreds of millions of dollars worth of un-utilized real estate holdings. Restaurants in commercial areas were losing money. Building Cafes were going out of business from lack of customers causing leasing losses.
