It's weird how the 13th Amendment bans all kinds of compulsory labor except as punishment for a crime, and they definitely could have added "except jury duty doesn't count" but they chose not to, and the amendment is written in plain unmistakable English instead of legalese, impossible to misunderstand, but literally every court in the country says "yeah but we're just gonna make jury duty compulsory anyway."
