Thanks for the report!

Your idea of a healthy body (i.e., successful economic system) providing a better environment for a healthy spirit is worthy of exploring. I believe market capitalism has proven over time to be the most socially equitable and viable of the economic systems humans have used to date. It typically provides a level playing field and rewards performance over other less esoteric measures of success.

The challenges others may highlight with respect to market capitalism leading to the loss of moral values is failing to see the forest from the trees. As you noted, less economically viable systems cause even greater fundamental issues. Less or reduced economic success leads to less or reduced social and/or spiritual freedom.

Shalom.
