Okay, they’re not “thriving,” they’re “prospering.” You win.
Please point out where I “make (that) case.”
You could have tons of diamonds, gold and oil buried in the ground or sitting in the river, and a country full of geniuses and talented, competent people, and any other “factor” you think might contribute to a country’s wealth. Without a minimal level of liberty, without the assurance that all these people will be able to keep at least SOME of the profits from risked capital, there will be no capital risked, no resources liberated, no profits, no production, no wealth. Period. It’s as simple as that.
Liberty is the fountainhead from which wealth flows.
