Conflicts of interest

Nature

Conflicts of interest arise when people find themselves caught between contradictory desires or actions, each of which they feel bound to perform but which are incompatible.

Counter-claim

People should not be punished for the appearance of potential wrongdoing. Unless some law is violated through a conflict of interests, in which case the issue becomes one of criminality rather than ethics, there is no real victim in a conflict situation.
