The Chief Justice of the United States (not of the Supreme Court!) is paid a higher salary than the others. It would be interesting to see how such a proposal would work with the Compensation Clause.

As Chief Justice, John Roberts knows that the Congress cannot abolish his office like it can abolish all others. Thus he is protected.
