Answer:

According to www.mentalfloss.com, "The lifetime appointment is designed to ensure that the justices are insulated from political pressure and that the court can serve as a truly independent branch of government. Justices can't be fired if they make unpopular decisions, in theory allowing them to focus on the law rather than politics."

Hope this answers your question...
