This kind of thing will continue in any government system wherein the current body can borrow large sums of money now to pay for perk's now with little to no consequences now. Eventually someone pays the price but the bet is that someone will be around when the current beneficiary isn't.

That might be a problem for the NEXT generation, but paying back government debt isn't what is driving the numbers in these articles.
