I think that there should be some kind of ratio limiting users on their down-voting. In my opinion, upvote things that add to the discussion, and things that don't add will naturally drop. I use the downvote similar to the way I would a 'report' button. By adding some kind of requirements for downvoting, or by using up/down vote ratios, this would stop the excessive downvoting.
