Yes, israel followed much better economic policies, good laws for its recognised citizens and had less corruption, unlike neighbouring countries
But a thing that shouldn't be forgotten is that today, almost 27% of the Jewish population are foreign-born and over a half of Jewish native-born are second-generation Israelis, according to Bar-Ilan University; and IZA—Institute for the Study of Labor.
And those were already affluent people, more educated ones and they came on the backs of the british mainly, they got german compensations and American aids with global sympathy for what they went through. Plus, they took alot of already developed and formerly owned agricultural lands, water resources and other capitals from the former residents of many areas, since the region wasn't a "no man's land."
The effects of these should never be undermined

I've never seen a country with few regulations and poor, but every poor country I saw was over-regulated.
You think freedom causes wars and conflicts of interests? Come here, to Ethiopia, the more government intervention for "development" and for "introduction of democracy" plus for "women empowerment", the more wars occur. It's enough we have the bloodiest war in the 21st century, much bloodier than ISIS insurgency or Russia-Ukraine war.
The more taxes, more welfare, more government control, more cultural deterioration, more free health care the government offers for higher taxes "only on the rich" as they say (and that's even unfair for the rich who did nothing wrong), the less peace we have

@horrificpancake2000 it's hard to get reported informations, but I've experienced it myself, 35 percent on income tax above 100 usd/month, more corruption with more funding for projects, even our grand dam, 15 percent VAT, increased tariffs, increased central bank regulations with little increase in interest rates (to allow the government to take more loans from the central bank for "development and welfare" (but actually for war funding with newer turkish and iranian technologies))
All this because of increased government intervention for "welfare and development", the victims are the rich and poor, it's just equality in oppression, not actual social justice as they claim.
I mean, they have alot of fiscal spending in education and healthcare, but they are funded by taxes that discourages employment and investment. Forget about investment or employment, it's just unfair for the government to take whatever they want just because a bunch of parliamentarians want it, how is my money being unjustly taken from me be considered justice?

So, first, congrats on your first sponsor
Second, I disagree with this concept of limitarianism. Because wealth is not mainly redistributed and limited, it's not like how the colonialists thought to justify their lootings. When someone "makes" money, it's most of the times value created, not redistributed.
1. So, if someone didn't make an Nvidia for us, it would've taken longer for another person to do it, if ever, so this billionaire is basically being rewarded for it.
2. Wealth inequality (not the current extreme) is also a way to re-allocate resources to their best investors, so instead of giving money to a person who can bring yearly 10% ROI, it should be given to that who can bring more ROIs, and in the case of musk, it's +100%.
Third, should we have any right to limit others who are not committing any harm? If someone is more financially sound, should he be punished? At this point, it's not about wealth, but about the tyranny of majority
