Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

For instance, Peter Singer uses some plausible-looking premises and rules of inference to get to the conclusion that we all have a strong moral obligation to give all the money we make over $30,000 to Oxfam.

Okay, this I totally get. I mean, argument for argument's sake -- what's not to love? What's the pay scale like?

What's the pay scale like?

Maximum salary is $30,000.

supposed to be good, but I'm in the middle of kiddie lit still, 50% of which is boring X2.
