A Tale Of Two Israels: Income Inequality, Poverty, And Widening Socioeconomic Gaps
Channel: Daniel Rosehill
Date: 2023-04-08

Israel was famously described in the Bible as 'a land flowing with milk and honey.'  Today - that description might be 'a land of skyscrapers and newfound tech wealth.'

While Israel's vaunted technology sector has created vast fortunes, Israel also has one of the highest rates of poverty in the developed world - while 22% of its population sees its bank account lingering in a near constant state of overdraft. 

How can these two conflicting dynamics be reconciled? Are socioeconomic gaps in Israel widening or narrowing? And what can be done to ensure that the fruits of Israel's rapid economic growth are distributed more evenly among its citizens?
