Ron Johnson: “Dodd Frank, when passed was about 350,000 words. And a year…”

“So they're not up to date figures, but when previous Congresses passed the Affordable Care and Patient Protection Affordable Care act, it was 380,000 words a year ago. That act now is about 12 million words. So 308,000 to 12 million. Dodd Frank, when passed was about 350,000 words. And a year ago, up to about 15 million words. So that's an awful lot of meat being added to the bones by the fourth branch of government. That's largely unaccountable. It's unelected. And so from my standpoint, that's somewhat of a problem.” (07:31–07:38)
