Why were Athenian citizens paid to be on juries in the ancient times?

It was a way of spreading the money mulcted from the cities of the Athenian empire around the citizens to keep them happy. It also recompensed them for time sitting on juries insted of farming or working at their trade. The juries were large (usually 500) and several sat each day, so there was a lot of time lost by them, and so there was a need to recompense them. But it was part of the way of spreading the money around as well. About half the Athenian citizens were on the public payroll in service on juries, the army, the navy, 500 councilors, and other public duties.
