Every single other person could also be called the problem, because they knowingly let John do all the work, and apparently weren't interested in sharing the responsibility.

If someone else is getting paid the most amount of money, I'm happy to let the most amount of work fall to them. "Sharing the responsibility" doesn't make sense if I don't get to share the reward. It's a company, not a community or a family.
