I doubt that Lyric agrees that the system he is describing does not maximize wealth in even the broadest sense of the term, but I suppose I can't speak for him. I believe that a free market would maximize wealth in even the most broad, reasonable sense of the term. Even in your definition, whatever that may be.
Lyric just said that he so far has not included happiness or other values, just wealth generation and ownership. I don't see how a population where some can't afford even basic necessities or healthcare performs better than a population where all do. Just maximizing the global "monetary" wealth does not guarantee global "happiness" wealth due to wealth condensation, preferential attachment, greater political power of the rich and so on. It's almost as if I hadn't said these already.
