They argue that all government intervention is based around force in one fashion or another. Don't pay your taxes and you'll get a letter, don't respond to the letter, police will show up, don't obey police and they will have to arrest you, don't let yourself get arrested and the police will use violence.

They're right. This is hardly a controversial or even libertarian ideal. Mao said something similar.

For such a central precept of his philosophy, and despite many requests, J-Rod has yet to provide a definition of what "force" is.

The real-life court civil court system has already been almost completely sidestepped in all matters of people v. business cases into arbitration, which are basically privatized courts. Arbiters find in favor of the large business interest upwards of 92% of the time. Why? First, they may be under contract with the corporation. Second, if they are not in contract, the arbitration organization wants repeat business from deep-pocketed clients, and having a reputation for siding with the little guy is death. So saying that courts will be impartial dispute resolvers in your DROstopia is madness
