A better idea is to invest heavily in public education. Not only
for math and
science subjects, but also for the arts, and humanities. This is
how we get
better juries.
Like perfect random numbers (where you
should have no chance better than 1 in range of numbers for accurately
predicting the next number; the more prefect a sequence of numbers becomes to
passing the tests for randomness, the more the chance of predicting the next
number accurately gets closer to certainty!), the more people are educated in
these areas, the more likely they are to be deselected serving on a jury
deciding these areas, which means that juries would end up with the less well
educated people, be a non-representative cross sample and a worse
jury.
The paradox of perfect random numbers and the paradox of the best

invest heavily in public education.
That depends
upon what the education consists of.
10,000 hours of education brought
to you by mrgacorp, indoctrinating
children into thinking that megacorp only
serves the public good, wouldn't
increase the ability of people to
differentiate between justice, and injustice,
where megacorp and its business
allies are involved. 10,000 hours of
education, where the Six
Classics are the only texts, would serve the
public
good. OTOH, that type
of education would crash an ecomony based on retail
sales of junk, trash, and
garbage --- which is the state of the economy of the
United States.
