I don't know about neo-classical because I do not know much about
economics beyond the law of supply and demaand. But I am a materialist

Oh no! If you can show us how to be rich and happy with no tools,
instrments and gadgets I will gladly concede the point. If you can show
us how to stay alive without paying attention to things out side our
skin, I will gladly conceded the point.

Remember, we are to be happy and safe even without toothbrushes and
toilet paper.
