...after meetings with their finance ministers and regulators.
Near-universal responses to him about the new 800+ page Frank-Dodd finance regulations?
"Those are incredibly heavy-handed and overly burdensome".

 At this point probably more people in China have read Dodd-Frank than our congress. Dodd says he still hasn't read it.

Keep taking advice from the Chinese.
It has worked so well so far.

Dodd-Frank is a terrific bill and the first significant regulatory reform of the banking sector that has actually made gains for the people instead of the banks since the 1940s.

Nah, we got it covered. Our Conservative overlords flirt with chinese intelligence officers, and we let them hack major corporations until they're out of business.
But hey, the Chinese do complain about our financial regulations...which are seen by many nations in economic trouble as "Stuff we should have had to prevent this crap".
Including the US.
EDIT: I ALMOST FORGOT! WE GOT PANDAS!

We needed Glass-Steagall rules and a few rules about classes of leverage and clear tracking of ownership.
You know... things we used to have, but then "got progressive about" and repealed.
We didn't need 800+ pages of panicked, backlash nanny-state micromanagement.
It's amazing how "progressives" view anything which changes as good, right up until it proves to be a realllllly stupid idea.
The axes are so screwed up, now.

Serious question for those bitching about Dodd-Frank: What would you have had the gubmint do, considering the massive financial sector meltdown we saw in 2008? Nothing at all?
