I am a simpleton about trading, so pardon my dumb questions. Can I tell my brokers to close my margin accounts? They were automatically given to me when I opened my accounts, and I've never used them. If I do, will that mean my shares are never available for short sellers to borrow? Perhaps it's something other long term shareholders would want to do? Could it have a positive effect?

How can this behaviour be supported? And why isn't it the reverse way that the shareholder has to grant the right to use the shares for shorting?
