Future Libyans may look back and thank America, Britain and France for freeing them from that evil socialist Moammar Gadhafi. Now like us they will know all the benefits and wonders of the “free market”. In Gadhafi’s Libya:

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. Home considered a human right in Libya

4. All newlyweds in Libya receive $60,000 Dinar (US$50,000) by the government to buy their first apartment so to help start up the family. Is this what you call a dictator Traditional wedding in Tripoli, Libya

5. Education and medical treatments are free in Libya. Before Gaddafi only 25% of Libyans are literate. Today the figure is 83%.

6. Should Libyans want to take up farming career, they would receive farming land, a farming house, equipments, seeds and livestock to kick-start their farms are all for free.

7. If Libyans cannot find the education or medical facilities they need in Libya, the government funds them to go abroad for it is not only free but they get US$2,300/mth accommodation and car allowance.

Add to the above Women were full and equal participants in Libyan society. Under the ultra religious fanatics (we backed) out of Benghazi women will at best become second class citizens or at worse, property.

“Charley Wilson’s war” all over again!

Agreed, Gaddafi was no angle; but compare him to what our government has done in our name in Vietnam, Central and South America, the Middle East and (soon to come) Africa he sure looks like something other than the two dimensional bad guy our corporate media is working overtime to make him.

The greatest treat to their global “free market” is someone who invest their countries natural resources and wealth back into their people. The worlds “middle men” (International bankers, Goldman Sacs….) require “host” to continue the parasitical existence. Watch your back Hugo Chavez!
