new short selling rules

"The Alternative Uptick Rule is designed to prevent abusive short sales"

Are they trying to say that a bunch of trading desks are calling each other and formulating some sort of agreement to get short at the same time? Thats funny and wouldn't work anyway. There is no such thing as abusive short selling as long as there is stock to borrow.
 
regulation in the market is same as rules in any game.

no roughing no cheating
no card counting machines in blackjack.
no drugs in Olympics

rules are rules. you don't have to participate in the market,if you don't like the rules. --the exit door is over there.

What if I can count cards in my head? Why isn't that allowed?
