the market seems to have a potentially useful psychological effect on a society. it "rewards" those who can think long term, manage emotional volatility, analyze history, humility to learn from history/others/math, etc... and thus indirectly "punishes" others.
also: ability to keep greed in check as well as differentiate the subtlety between aggressive gambling & thoughtful confidence. e.g. similar to a YOLO cocaine binge vs "I only have this one divine life." they're both 'technically' the same 'one life' idea.
