Answer:

I do not view it as legitimate excuse for engaging in projects that might be unethical.

Explanation:

Too many times, we try to soothe our conscience when we accept to do things we know are morally wrong and unethical with the pathetic excuse of "if i don't do it, someone else will".

This is wrong because we say it to feel better about what we want to do. We should not use the lure of making some extra money to sell out our souls and perform things which are unethical and have potential to destroy someone or something.

Good professional conduct among engineers requires ethical decision making, carrying out tasks in a responsible manner, adhering to rules and making sure that the work done is according to professional standards.
