and for my next trick

i think that we should change the current jury trial system. i think when you get jury duty, it's automatic duty. medical conditions notwithstanding. and it's for a month. you spend that month matched with a certain judge and you hear as many trials as you can. 28-30 days service, depending on how the trials end. if you go over, you'll get further compensation and a bye on your next jury duty. courts don't have to pick juries for every trial. and you already have them waiting for the next case. wham bam straight to trial, ma'am. i think it could clear up the courts a little bit, and give people more civic responsibility. a sense of which is sorely lacking in this great democracy of ours. or i could just be talking out of my ass.
