You guys have a system where your authorities can order you, at any time, to work without compensation for an unspecified period of time? This without taking consideration of your work, family or other personal issues? If you refuse to do this you get fines or jail time?

Sounds like good olde Soviet Union to me!
You are compensated in US Dollars but not nearly enough to cover your lost living expenses. However, exercising the right to a jury of your peers requires being part of a jury of peers.
