Third, if you’re thinking about working for [[government]], you need to know who to apply to. Don’t apply to [[state]] [[government]] for a [[job]] at the [[Internal Revenue Service|IRS]]. It’s [[federal]] . Don’t apply to [[President of the United States of America|President]] [[George W. Bush|Bush]] for a [[job]] as a [[public school]] [[teacher]].

There are other differences between [[federal]] and [[state]] [[government]]. [[federal]] [[job]]s often pay better and are more secure. They are backed by [[Internal Revenue Service|IRS]] [[tax]] collections of the [[United States of America|United States]]. They often work in bigger and nicer buildings. One summer I worked in a [[federal]] building in [[Wahington D.C>|D.C.]], and it was so big that one employee used the hallways as a track for jogging!

Federal officials generally have more [[power]] than [[state]] officials. The [[Supremacy Clause]] of the Constitution, which is in Article VI (see p. 328), says that [[federal]] [[law]] is supreme. You are not likely to hear about a [[state]] police officer arresting an [[FBI]] agent, because he is a [[federal]] officer.
