Jury Duty and The Bad Economy



My co-worker had to miss work today as her presence was required for jury duty in Alexandria Virginia. Why does an employed person who has a job a job to do is being asked to miss their work and not report to their job because of jury duty?

Do not they have enough unemployed people that can lend their sound judgment to the judiciary system? They should make a pool of all unemployed folks who are on worker's comp and ask them to report to jury duty. It would be good for them as the jury duty will help beef up their self worth in light of their unemployment. They might as well get a free lunch for the duration of the trial or hearing.

P.S. a lot of I know about juries came from the Runway Jury and 12 Angry Men.
