: Playing ball on yer tod is a personal activity, playing with friends is a social activity, if you play ball with friends, you have to play by the agreed rules. Its damned hard to play cricket on yer tod.

social activity, not function. Its chosen voluntary and individual.

: But its not *their* field, effectively they are just managers working a field for an absentee landlord, except this landlord is the whole human race...

Whats the point of working it if you exist at the behest of a faceless mass and their supposed 'representatives' (such would invariably come about)

: I'm an individual, I am unique, but I am not coherent, nor unitary and mondic, I only exist through my relationships, through my culture and society, through my socialisation- through my other.

None of which requires to be anything other than individuated.

: Where is the exploitation? Who is using you, except yourself, being as how as a member of society, you have a duty to defend its liberies (and thus your own), surely the Jury service is an act of freedom? I really and honestly cannot understand your viewpoint.

A state does not have the right to steal a moment of your time. Its to be given voluntarily. Even if this was made clear I imagine attendance would be very high
