Our government spends an obscene fortune on its armed forces -- almost as much as do all the other nations of the world combined. In fact, we are by far the most weaponized empire in the history of the world, with 761 military bases in over 100 countries. If our military costs were cut down to a more reasonable size -- say the same as China's -- we'd have a trillion-dollar bonus to deal with the financial infection that erupted here and sent toxic ripples throughout the world.

Keeping that in mind as a metaphor, Aries, make this your hypothesis: By reducing the hostility, combativeness, and judgmental ire that you personally generate, you'll be far more likely to navigate your way toward prosperity.
