They say the goal is to bond people who overstay their visa frequently. But also people from countries apart of the visa free program wont get bonded.
So who does this apply to? If you overstay your visa frequently you wont get a visa to come to the US anyways. So who does this actually impact?

Your assumption is incorrect, because the article doesn't say "the goal is to bond people who overstay their visa frequently." (quoted from you). It says (quoted from article):
"to impose bonds on visitors from countries with high rates of visa overstays"
Quite different, as the latter means it applies to people who don't overstay their visas, but who have a great many fellow citizens who overstay their visas.

I found it always funny when Customs implied I wanted to overstay. Which is one of the most absurd things I ever heard.
