I described exactly what you proposed. If you wanted to take somebody to your muppet court, you said you get to go hire the mediator. When looking for a mediator, don't you think that the consumer is going to want one that will rule in their favor?
I understand that you are unwilling to face this. I would feel pretty embarrassed, too. It's a /really/ stupid justice system.
No need to be rude sir.
I'm afraid you didn't consider something and maybe I could have been clearer...
The "you" wasn't necessarily singular. When used in the plural, "you" would allow BOTH parties to a contract to pre-decide, mutually and consensually, who they might use in the event of any future disputes.
Furthermore the list of arbitrators could come from ones that the market had decided gave good service, not a coercion based monopoly as presently exists, which does not permit choice and will kill you if you disagree.
So, I think your assertion has been refuted and you have still not addressed the one I made.
Is it better to resolve a dispute if the disputants both have pre-agreed to use the same arbitrator or is it better to use one that holds a FORCIBLY HELD coercive monopoly, in which BOTH disputants might not even want to use?
I think part of the reason you have a problem with what I'm proposing is you aren't evaluating the message in the context I've intended and are studiously defending a contradiction. Perhaps more marijuana would put you in a better mood and able to expand your mind beyond the narrow perspective you are holding?
