Israeli kibbutzim are unsustainable model.

They only lasted for the following reasons:

1. exploiting external workers (new immigrants, Arabs, foreign Thai workers)

2. huge subsidies and debt write-offs were provided by the left-wing governments (until the right-wing redirected them to building in Judea & Samaria)

3. Stealing public resources: converting the free agricultural lands to real estate, privatizing public waterfronts for use in their B&B businesses, etc.

Similarly like Crypto is parasitizing on the global financial system, Kibbutzim were parasitizing on the Israeli state and its taxpayers.
