真的假的？ 利比亚这么高的福利和条件还造反。

Libyan people’s standards of living were the highest in Africa and far surpassed most people from the so-called First World.

No Libyan has paid for electricity charges. There is no electricity bill in Libya as it is a free commodity.

There is no interest on loans - banks in Libya are state-owned and loans are given to all its citizens at 0% interest by law.

Shelter is considered a human right to every Libyan and Gaddafi vowed that his own parents would not get a house until everyone in Libya had a home, and it is said that his own father died while the Colonel and his wife were still living in a tent.

In Libya under Gaddafi, all newlyweds received US$50 000 from government to buy their first apartment to help start up the family while every woman who gives birth is given US$5 000.

Education and medical treatment were free.

Should Libyans want to take up farming they would receive farming land, a house, equipment, seed and livestock.

The price of petrol was 14 cents per litre while 40 loaves of bread went for 15 cents.
