According to the article "Lifeboat Ethics," the idea that one person taking more than his or her fair share of something can ruin the system for everyone is called THE TRAGEDY OF THE COMMONS.

It is brought about when the right to use a common resource is not matched by the corresponding responsibility to protect said resource.

If you were offered immortality, would you take it. Why or why not.<br><br> (5-6) sentences
bixtya [17]

No, I would not take it because if you lived for the rest of the world then it would get boring and would seem like the same day over and over again. I would also not be able to see my family members that I grew up with and spent my life knowing and loving. Another reason why I wouldn't consider immportality for a choice to me is because maybe in the future things get worse and worse to live and because after all there is a lot of polution in the earth, who knows how much there will be in 100 years? I could not handle the anoyyance of just living for so many years wondering what will happen next. Or if things will change, because the same thing over and pver again is boring and not worth the power of imortality.

From the first sentence, the narrator infer that even when a member of rising middle class is experiencing grief, they are forced to hide it due to the concern of their social standing.

From the second sentence, the narrator infers that unability to express emotion started to eating them from the inside and make them miserable.
