B. Because Rand denies that the talented or rich have a duty to help the poor,she can allow for the existence of conflicts of interest between the poor andthe wealthy or talented, which do not require any duty to help but allow foroccasional acts of generosity.
C. Because Rand maintains that the talented or rich have a duty to help thepoor, she can sustain her thesis that there are no conflicts of interest between
the poor and the wealthy or talented, which do not require any duty but allow
for circumstantial acts of generosity.

she can accept that during conflicts of self-interest, the talented and rich have
a duty, after all, to help the poor.
