the issue of whistleblowers who take action for personal fame orbenefit. This presents us with a dilemma: does the presence of amaterial benefit reduce the ethical value of an action? Perhaps,conversely, is doing something “good” without apparent materialbenefit morally superior than actions taken that have some personalbenefit? If someone is employed by a division of the United Nations as aphysician and does eye surgery on poor people in a poor country, are they less”good” than an American physician who spends his/her vacation doingthe same thing without pay?
It is an interesting sidediscussion to the idea of whistle blowing.
