Should Short-Selling Be Limited?

I'm no expert, and most people who read this SeekingAlpha site and many other investment sites won't agree with me, but in my ideal world I'd ban all puts, calls, options of all kinds, and all short-selling. Also, I'd ban all pre-market sales and post-market sales. In addition, I would ban all sales of stocks at discount prices (WU, et al). Everyone should always be on the same playing field. On the other hand, I'm willing (nice of me, huh?) to allow all this game playing to go on if everyone, including the Fed, would rename the stock market and all the various exchanges, with "casino" in the name. That's all the stock market has become, a big casino. No different than betting on horses.
