Doesn't that mean that every single insurance payout will have to involve the courts, taking a long time and not always panning out? If I have an accident I probably need the money on the kind of time-scale that my bills are due on, not the time scale on which courts operate. Even then, that's ignoring the huge overhead introduced.

What court? What payout?

Freedom Markets™ are best served by binding arbitration.

You obviously hit a nerve with this one. I agree with you though, binding arbitration is a major issue. For example, there was recently a thread on dell shipping Ubuntu. The Dell image of Ubuntu has a EULA that includes, you guessed it, binding arbitration.

My comment about this got 0 attention though...
