Ma'assalama Jamahiriya

Once upon a time, not too far away, there was a country untouched by the menaces of civilization. Life was not a race. Time was not money. Privileges were not dependent on your bank balance. Marketing gimmicks did not fuel your greed. There were no beggars or slums. Streets were safe. Life was simple.

This was the 80s in Great Socialist People's Libyan Arab Jamahiriya as I saw it.
