That falls under the category:
fixes that fail.

Senge (1990) describes “fixes that fail” as a situation in which the solution or fix to a problem is effective in the short-term, but has unforeseen long-term consequences that usually get addressed by reapplying the same fix, but with an even greater vengeance. Thus, after initial better conditions, the unintended consequences exacerbate the problem such that it not only reappears but becomes steadily worse.
