Oliver James asserted that advanced capitalism makes money out of misery and dissatisfaction. He calls this condition 'Affluenza'. The antidote is to look inward, embrace family, and stop seeing life as a competition.

Here he is saying, loud and clear, that capitalism is bad for your mental health.
