<<the tax rate is going to be so high on any gains.>>

Isn't it capped at 28% on short term now? And with only 10 shares, if it drops to say, 41, then you will owe a whopping $28. Less than the SI fee now.

<<I post on this board in the hope that someone will convince me that I shouldn't be short this stock>>

Seem to me that for your investment, that shorting is not worth it. Also, taxes are not a factor.
