Shut everything down, immediately create millions and millions of unemployed. Tell them to stay home. Stay separated. Keep everyone far outside their comfort zone.

Wait for the inevitable spark.

"Here’s what we know: whatever the so-called threat to the nation—whether it’s civil unrest, school shootings, alleged acts of terrorism, or the threat of a global pandemic in the case of COVID-19—the government has a tendency to capitalize on the nation’s heightened emotions, confusion and fear as a means of extending the reach of the police state."

Civil unrest was going to come as the food situation deteriorated going forward.
Sparking it ahead of that time, then quelling it and tightening the police state in response makes perfect sense.
People still have things to lose now.
Later, as the system breaks down more completely, there will already be measures ready to put into place that would be supportable only with a tightened police state.
