I'll take the job.

Job security for life. I don't even need to be bribed. Why risk it, I don't need much just the decent steady paycheck.

Can I work remotely?

(c) the Chief Justice and the Associate Chief Justice of the Federal Court, $344,400 each; and. (d) the other judges of the Federal Court, $314,100 each.

Believe it or not, the price of a machine gun can be upwards of $20,000 today and is expected to increase every year. Some of the more exclusive models are even more expensive, with an average price tag ranging from $30,000 to $50,000!Mar 13, 2020

Hell yes I would accept and I would judge based off the 10th amendment, if its not explicitly stated as a congressional power or a prohibition to the state then the state law stands, and all laws where congress over stepped would be struck down. Legislation facilitated via a tax would stand.
