15. Let me ask you a direct question. Suppose you have a noble job, e.g. public defender.
Your boss instructs/orders you to purposely tank your defense effort for a client (the reason is unimportant). What do you do?

The support the troops crowd would say, obey your boss because it is an order and you are not responsible for your actions.

I would say that the "right" decision would be to not obey, even if there are consequences (demotion or firing).

What would YOU do?
