So working on legislation the reason that in general bills have gotten much larger the last 18 months or so is due to the fall of the Chevron Doctrine. Congress now has to directly tell exactly who exactly what they want. Also the pages are like freaking triple spaced and honest to god the words only are on a 4 maybe 5 inch space (notice now empty the sides are).

Plus with Finance law in particular they have to amend so many other laws and just opening the doc up I went to page 11 and this was the page

‘‘(II) a security issued by—
‘‘(aa) an investment com3 pany registered under section
8(a) of the Investment Company
Act of 1940 (15 U.S.C. 80a–
8(a)); or
‘‘(bb) a person that would
be an investment company under
the Investment Company Act of
1940 but for paragraphs (1) and
(7) of section 3(c) of that Act
(15 U.S.C. 80a–3(c));
‘‘(III) a deposit (as defined under
section 3 of the Federal Deposit In15 surance Act (12 U.S.C. 1813)),
‘‘(III) a deposit (as defined under
section 3 of the Federal Deposit In15 surance Act (12 U.S.C. 1813)), re16 gardless of the technology used to
record such deposit; or
‘‘(IV) an account (as defined in
section 101 of the Federal Credit
Union Act (12 U.S.C. 1752)), regard21 less of the technology used to record
such account.

In honestly anything else this would be what maybe a quarter of a page a third tops but here its a whole ass page and there is a lottttttttt of this.
