I am a preschool teacher. I make virtually nothing and work multiple jobs (always 6 days a week, usually 7; my last day off was January 5th), and I still feel guilty getting the vast majority of my books from the library instead of supporting authors by buying them. (I try to make up for it by rec'ing the ones I love, and buying them when I can, such as when I bought the Toby Daye books with Barnes & Noble gift cards parents of the kids I teach got me for the holidays.) I can't imagine pirating them outright.
