Orwell already spoke to it:
“Every record has been destroyed or falsified, every book rewritten, every picture has been repainted, every statue and street building has been renamed, every date has been altered. And the process is continuing day by day and minute by minute. History has stopped. Nothing exists except an endless present in which the Party is always right.”

they have to. Fairfax County Courthouse is mammoth in size to handle all the speeding tickets taxes they hand out. It's actually quite mad how much money is in that courthouse; yet centered in a small little town.
