Under President Johnson, the government set up the Federal Direct Student

to students.
Private lenders make the loans, but they receive the full backing of the

【希望之声2015年8月6日讯】周四,《财富》杂志网站刊登了美国加州克莱蒙特·麦肯
纳学院(Claremont McKenna College)政治学教授裴敏欣的文章,文中表示引渡令完
成一事比北京想的还要复杂,而原因其实在于中共统治下的司法制度。
文中说,中国政局最奇特的一个现象是,执政的共产党中,大多数那些在权利斗争中失
败了的,或是盗取了几百万美金的党员们都愿意逃到美国,这个在中共领导人头脑里属
于“敌方”的领土。更奇怪的是,当这样的倒戈发生的时候,中共政府还放肆的要求美
国归还这些逃犯,尽管这两个国家没有引渡条约。
目前,美国政府尚未公开表示是否会将令完成送回中国。针对此事,裴敏欣教授在文章
中说,北京的时机不是很好。近几个月,因为美国政府人事管理系统受到疑似来自中国
的网络攻击、中共当局在南海有争议地区建岛以及中国人权的全面恶化,致使美中关系
一直比较紧张。因此,华盛顿极有可能不会同意北京把令完成用飞机送回中国的要求。
