It only comes across as a 'secret' because 'they've' successfully golemiZed the politicuxery class to the point where none of them can remotely grasp the immutable constant Truth of Simple Math any longer.

Nothing meaningful left to do now but pull up a lawnchair on a lofty mountain peak, crack a brew and Enjoy the Show™ from a reasonable distance while the entire Asscarnival consumes itself into a well deserved oblivion.

After 'they' annihilate themselves and their worthless minions, PEOPLE will quickly get back to the business of rebuilding, once the smoke clears.
