Right now it probably isn't politically feasible as it will wrongly be compared to the Berlin Wall.

It's definitely feasible. It already passed the H.R. They're much closer to the views of the people than the Senate.

True, but unfortunately both the Senate and President oppose it. Even if it made it out of the congress, Bush (standing next to his master, President Fox) would veto it and the Senate wouldn't have the votes to override.

For all intents and purposes, the House bill is DOA. It'll lose it's teeth once both houses of Congress goes into conference to hammer out a compromise.
