    Hillary proposing higher short term capital gains taxes

    That means that every merchant should pay sale taxes which they do not. Why is the merchandise market taxed differently than capital markets?

    Can I get fired for shorting the company that I work for?

    Petition to fix tax rules for active traders

    You are wrong. You must always pay taxes on annual profits, but you can't deduct annual losses with wash sale rule. If your losing position will be profitable next year, you might never deduct your previous year losses.
