This system is being absolutely abused by short sellers and transparency is not only needed but should have already been implemented. Everyone should have access to the same data, THAT is a fair and just market.

It's ludicrous to tell me I can't invest because I'm not rich enough. Public securities are just that . . . . public.

We need to see daily reports on a specific institution's short position regarding the amount of shares they have on loan, the amount of time those shares have been borrowed, the amount gained/loss due to a short position, and the amount of IOUs/tangible shares that are being traded.
