How the life in Libya was under Qaddafi's rule



How the life in Libya was under Qaddafi's rule: 1. There is no electricity bill in Libya; electricity is free for all its citizens. 2. There is no interest on loans, banks in Libya are state-owned and loans given to all its citizens at 0% interest by law. 3. All newlyweds in Libya receive US$ 64,000 from the government to buy their first apartment so to help start up the family. 4. Education and medical treatments are free in Libya. Before Qaddafi only 25% of Libyans are literate. Today the figure is 83%. 5. Should Libyans want to take up farming career, they would receive farming land, a farming house, equipment, seeds and livestock to kick- start their farms – all for free. 6. If Libyans cannot find the education or medical facilities they need in Libya, the government funds them to go abroad for it – not only free but they get US $2, 300/mth accommodation and car allowance. 7. If a Libyan buys a car, the government subsidized 50% of the price. 8. The price of petrol in Libya was $0. 14 per liter. which made it cheaper than water! 9. If a Libyan is unable to get employment after graduation the state would pay the average salary of the profession as if he or she is employed until employment is found. 10. A portion of Libyan oil sale is, credited directly to the bank accounts of all Libyan citizens. 11. A mother who gave birth to a child receive US $5,000. 12. 40 loaves of bread in Libya costs $ 0.15. 13. Qaddafi carried out the world’s largest irrigation project, known as the Great Man-Made River project, to make water readily available throughout the desert country. It was socialism in Libya, but they, with the help of USA and NATO (France especially), have destroyed their country.
