Congressmen, federal judges, FBI agents, CIA agents, Secret Service agents, and many other federal and federally contracted occupations tend to make 6 figure salaries (from our tax dollars, mind you) with lifelong benefits, while ones that don't get put out of work, and generally it isn't for an extended period of time. My point being is that federal occupations tend to have good job security and pay well, which is why people want them in the first place.
