It's way too simple.  You could fit that bill on -- what? -- one?  Two pages?

Besides, how popular would it be?  Merely enormously?

Sorry, but that's not enough on either count.

You'd have to accompany it with a couple of hundred million slipped under the table to the half of Congress that is employed by the banks and insurance companies to get it passed -- and most of the rest, who would vote for it anyway, would feel left out.
