mandatory arbitration is when a higher athority steps in and makes a decision for the two arguing sides. This is a horrific idea. On the simplist level, mandatory arbitration is...well i will give an example. Say two children are argueing about what type of cookie they want, say one of them wants chocolate chip and the other wants sugar cookies. mandatory arbitration is when the teacher comes along and demands that both children are to eat macadamia nut. What if one of the children is alergic to macadamia nuts. Binding arbitration benifits neither side
Some states, and many insurance companies, require auto accident disputes to be resolved first through arbitration, rather than litigation. In these situations, liability for damages must be determined as a result of an arbitration process before a civil lawsuit can be filed in the court system. In arbitration, neutral arbitrators (often knowledgeable practicing attorneys) are selected and evidence is presented. The arbitrators then determine the amount of the arbitration award, if any. If the arbitration award is agreed to, that is the end of the matter (and often the arbitration award is made a final court judgment). If one of the litigants refuses to accept the arbitration award, a lawsuit may then be filed to have a "trial de novo" (new trial) in a court of law, with liability to be determined by a judge or jury. http://injury-law.freeadvice.com/property_damage/mandatory_arbitration.htm
arbitration-Arbitration is an alternative method of resolving disputes in which two parties present their individual sides of a complaint to an arbitrator or panel of arbitrators.

Mediation is more effective than arbitration b/c the company and the union work out their differences and find a middle ground they both can live with.
Arbitration forces the company and a union into a agreement both don't like and they both resent
Let's say two men are fighting over which type of beer they want to buy and one wants Budwiser and the other wants Coors and they can't reach an agreement then an arbitrator comes in and tells them they have to buy Bush which neither agreed to so they both don't like it when they could have eventually reached an agreement on another type of beer or one of the two they are fighting over
binding arbitration clauses in subprime home loan contracts. As a result, many homeowners have unknowingly signed mortgages that waive their legal rights, stripping them of their rights to present their case to a jury of their peers, and providing unscrupulous lenders with substantial advantages should a dispute arise. Mandatory Arbitration Is Incompatible with Homeowner Protection and Disclosure Laws Homeowner protection laws such as the Truth in Lending Act and the Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act aim to create an open and fair path to home ownership. The “sunshine” of improved transparency in the mortgage market is undermined by the closeddoor private justice of mandatory arbitration to resolve disputes. Mandatory arbitration has the following effects:
• Covers up unscrupulous lenders’ misdeeds. Arbitration is almost always a confidential process, without a public record, a trait that is marketed to companies targeted as potential clients by private arbitration firms. • Forces a take-it or leave-it choice on homeowners. Homeowners never bargain for mandatory arbitration clauses. Rather, they are presented with the full set of loan documents that contain one of these clauses and told Mandatory Arbitration Costs Homeowners More While proponents of arbitration often tout it as a low-cost alternative to courts, homeowners have found that arbitration increases the cost of resolving their dispute. • Entails substantial and uncertain fees. The combined cost of filing and other administrative fees in arbitration routinely costs homeowners thousands of dollars. While some forums now claim to waive the filing fees for “indigent” plaintiffs, the magnitude and uncertainty of other costs still deter many meritorious claims. • Imposes multiple forum fees on homeowners. Frequently, parties to arbitration find that they still need to go to court, meaning that homeowners with legitimate claims are forced into a longer, more costly, and often duplicative process to vindicate their rights.
MAndatory arbitration binds the union and company into a contract that neither may agree on or like. Thus arbitration only masks the problem. Mediation is the only way to ultimately resolve the conflict between the two. Arbitraction is also a very expensive and long process.
mandatory arbitration clauses effectively amount to “take-it-or-leave-it” conditions. The consumer or employee essentially waives (often without his or her knowledge) the right to sue, or to participate in a class action lawsuit. Want a job, want health insurance, want a loan, a credit card, or a rent-a-car? You often have no choice but to give up your right to a day in court.
Arbitration is nbasically an unjust thing basically what it is, is a neutral party stepping in to resolve an issue. Take for example if a weird twist of events were to happen and Obama and McCain were to run against eachother again and the votes resulted in a tie. Basically with arbitration that would be like Raplh Nater stepping in and saying ill fix this and deciding he would just be president to resolve the issue
The EFCA takes away the employer's right to walk. Now the successful union, backed by direct government power -- i.e., mandatory arbitration -- can force itself on the firm. Yet the proposed law does not let any court block the deal or ensure that the mandated terms offer a reasonable return on its invested capital.
