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.

In the myth of Demeter Persephone and Hades what happens when Demeter learns that her daughter has been kidnapped
alukav5142 [94]
She searches for her and meets a queen. she then turns the queens baby into a demigod to thank her for her kindness when she was disguised as an old woman. After revealing herself as Demeter, she and the soldiers of the queen's nation begin searching for Persephone. She meets the sun titan and finds out where Persephone was taken from. She meets Hecate, a witch who tells her it was Hades, so Demeter goes to Zues, who tells her that he can do nothing about it. Demeter flips out and nothing grows anywhere except the place where the queen helped Demeter. Mortals were dieing and the gods were becoming irritated. Zues finally caved and sent Hermes to get Persephone, right after she eats part of the pomegranate. He tells this to Zues and Demeter, who turns the gardener who gave her the pomegranate into a newt. they eventually come to the agreement of Persephone stays in the underworld for part of the year, which is believed to be winter when Demeter is in distress until her daughter returns and nothing grows. Sorry for the long answer, I probably added a lot of unnecessary stuff.
