Is our expansive capitalism bad for our health?

The supposedly "free" market isn't giving everyone a fair share of the benefits or the costs - and we don't even acknowledge most of the costs, so we keep pushing for more and more ....

Market society identifies progress with competition instead of co-operation, and society as a realm of possessing things rather than for elaborating human relationships, and it creates a morality based on growth instead of limit and balance (Murray Bookchin, The Philosophy of Social Ecology)

Wealth or health doesn't make sense!
