Mostly it's money related. Some people literally cannot afford to attend jury duty because of how little compensation there is for their time; like in my area, if it takes two weeks you get compensated $4.75 an hour compared to a full time job which is $13.50 below minimum wage ($18.25).

I also think it would be cool and would like to attend, but then I wouldn't be able to pay rent if it goes on too long.
