Heinlein's _Job : A Comedy of Justice_ touches on it in passing.

http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0345316509/qid=1012490554/sr=1-1/ref=sr_1_74_1/103-5997783-5033435

One of Heinlein's better books, IMHO. Of course, that's relative to the rest of Heinlein's books, so personal preferences apply.
