This document outlines the debate around arbitration in consumer contracts and proposes a centrist approach. It discusses how the Federal Arbitration Act of 1925 enforced arbitration clauses but consumer protection laws from 1965-2015 have sought to regulate these contracts. There are left and right perspectives: the left wants to limit arbitration enforcement and give courts more review power, while the right wants to fully enforce arbitration as agreed. The author proposes that if arbitration clauses are enforced, courts should initially hear defenses and review awards for legal errors. However, arbitrators should still handle most issues to avoid undermining arbitration.
