Oh, no doubt. Forced arbitration is ghastly and should be 100% illegal. I can't imagine any reason why a private company would need it besides wanting to screw people over. I was just talking about optional arbitration in minor, religious situations.
You have a very limited imagination if you cannot think of a legitimate reason for private arbitration. It's a massive part of the American Justice System, allows disputes to be settled faster and for a lower cost than using the public courts system, and saves money.

In regards to the situation outlined in the OP; private arbitration bound by religious books is just a small hosed up part of the bigger problem. Why the gently caress are courts ordering people to enter religious rehab programs?
