They are paid by the United States government, and their salary is set by the law.
Since government does not produce anything to sell, their pay has to be collected from the people they provide a service to in the form of taxes and fee's. Federal taxes are collected from corporations and individuals in the form of corporate excise tax and individual estate taxes. However, income tax collected on your wages is not one of the taxes that pays for government salaries. This tax goes only to service the debt of the money government has borrowed from the central banks or the Federal Reserve.
