Auto-arrange all folders, not just selected one?

I know how to organize folders by "Arrange By" under view, but is there a way to apply this to all folders in Finder so I don't have to do this for each one? Thanks

MacBook Pro, Mac OS X (10.7)

I believ is something to do with the column in the left so if you choose it for your home folder when you navigate between them always they show it ..

If I select all folders it works for those but does not get the subfolders..

In Finder, select a folder in the right-hand view pane, right-click and select "Show View Options", change "Arrange By" to whatever you like (ie: Name) then click the "Use as Defaults" button at the bottom.
