There are a few other recent ones on his channel. Let me know if you need help finding them. He did quite a few talks.

The queen and her secretary in the middle.

I can guess what he means, but of course I can't speak for him. He most likely means that capitalism is not all about stuff and money. As he says a few seconds later, capitalism allows for freedom and, by extension, wealth, which enables, for example, more artists to create art. Of course not only because of wealth, but also because it allows for complete freedom of expression. Plenty of texts in the middle ages could get you burned at the stake, or sent to the Gulag if we take a more recent example. I don't think he uses "materialistic" in its philosophical meaning, which might lead to confusion. Capitalism is all about this world, not about another mystical dimension. In that sense it is completely materialistic.

We in the west live in a mixed economy. Not in a free market and definitely not in capitalism.

You're right, but in order to solve that problem, you have to get the diagnosis right. Buying power is being destroyed by government and the fed. The numeric value of wages does not matter if you stop debasing the currency. Going back to a sound currency is the #1 way to address poverty. But government does not want to lose power, lose influence, so they will always blame the issues they caused on something else, and today in america it's being blamed on capitalism, even though we are very far away from being a capitalist economy.

You have misunderstood the point Yaron was making. The wealth is created, not transferred. In the iPhone example, Yaron became wealthier when he purchased the phone because the features the phone has are worth more to him than the $1,000 he paid for it. He can now talk to his children from anywhere in the world. He can listen to any piece of music ever created. He can ask the phone for directions to any place on the planet and have the optimal route calculated for him in under a second. Pretty incredible feats of technology for such a low price, I'm sure you'll agree. But not only did Yaron get wealthier as a result of the transaction, so too did Apple, because they made a profit on the sale. Voluntary transactions are win-win.

They are if the wealth is transferring "up" to people who are creating value, nothing wrong with that. I get it, you offer nothing of value to the world: Not my problem.
