Security clearances often involve polygraph tests. On top of that they will interview a ton of people you know. So not only do you have to commit a federal crime to cover it up and learn how to fool a polygraph, you also have to convince a bunch of people that know you to commit a federal crime for you.

Polygraph tests are inaccurate pseudoscience that do not work.
