> You mean private litigation which employs gov't judges to adjudicate and the gov't police to enforce?

No, I mean private litigation and conflict mediation that is private. There is a lot of that already.

And it blows because the conflict mediators side with the people who have the deepest pockets and can offer repeat business.
I'd be curious to hear your notion of how government works.
How would that work?
The same way any private industry works. People or organizations offer services, and individuals choose which services to pay for.
So, I'd pay a private company to arbitrage between me and the company which caused my lead poisoning?

And what happens when the private company doesn't agree with the arbitrage result?
