A young 23 year old woman, Kelli Space attended Northwestern University using government guaranteed student loans. Now Kelli, who graduated with a degree in liberal arts, is faced with the insurmountable mountain of debt which, if paid on schedule will take over 20 years to retire.
Kelli has put up a website asking for people to donate to her in order to pay this debt. Sort of cyber panhandling if you
ask me. I feel sorry for her but there are millions of students falling into the same trap. And trap is exactly what it is regardless of anything government or the universities might say. Another example of unintended consequences of government becoming involved in the private lives of citizens.
