Was Gaddafi an evil dictator or a benevolent one? If you read Western media you would probably say an evil dictator, however, if you did some homework would that thought be challenged? Here is a list compiled by (socialist activist) Michael Parente. Are these things true? If so, wasn't Gaddafi a benevolent leader? 16 Things Libya Will Never See Again October 24, 2011 1. Electricity was free for all citizens 2. No interest on loans, banks in Libya were controlled by the state and loans were given to all its citizens at zero percent interest by law. 3. Having a home was considered a human right in Libya. 4. All newlyweds in Libay used to receive $60,000 dinar (U.S. $50,000) by the government to buy their first apartment so to help start a family. 5. Education and medical treatments were free in Libay. Before Gaddafi only 25% of Libyans were literate. Today, the figure is 83%. 6. If Libyans wanted to take up a farming career, they would receive farming land, a farming house, equipment, seed, and livestock to kickstart their farms.....all for free. 7.
