How can one just do away with shorting?

Just as the tides are in and out, prices go up and down. So someone has just as much right to speculate the price is going up as someone has the right to speculate the price is going down. If someone can make money when the price goes up, why not let someone make money when the price goes down?

so there should be calls but no one should be allowed to do puts?

along the same lines the price should always be up and something shouldn't ever be a deal and undervalued? so people like Warren Buffett that buy when something is down and a good value are bad guys?

Of course you are frustrated with the situation but aren't you getting into the crazy talk now?

you can't have the bull without the bear. just as companies go out of business and others start, everything has a cycle. If you want to make money, just know the rules of the game you're in and how to profit from the situation.
