A bridge is a really bad analogy here, since building a bridge out of swiss cheese (or whatever inadequate materials) is life-threatening and illegal. I imagine that if a client asked you to build an application that involved cooking the books in some way, you would turn down that work. There are clients I would turn away because of the nature of their business. (Easy example: I wouldn't work for a cigarette or gun manufacturer.)
