Why isn't Libya a liberal utopia?

Libya has free health care.

Libya has free basic education and compulsory secondary education. (and at a 82% literacy rate, about four times as effective as MPS)

Libya has subsidized housing and transportation.

The government controls the price, credit and trade of the private sector.

About 13% of the workforce works for the government.

These all seem to be goals to which the left strives. Clearly this is an example of a Liberal Utopia. It's like looking into the future of the heaven to which we can have if only we work a little harder, if only we care a little more.
