"Legal shorts are a good thing" I agree, but I don't think everyone does and here's why....
"abusive naked shorts on the other hand are criminal. The intent of those shorts is to bankrupt the company and to bring the value of investors shares to zero."

*Legal shorts are a good thing ,abusive naked shorts on the other hand are criminal. The intent of those shorts is to bankrupt the company and to bring the value of investors shares to zero.*
Isn't it also the intent of the legal shorts to bring the value of the company to zero? That's what they're investing in, no?
