If printed on normal paper, the Federal code would be over 16 feet tall and take an average person 46 weeks to read it. Nobody knows how many laws are in it and yet anyone could be charged for violating them.
From those laws come regulations. If printed and stacked the same way, the stack would be taller than a 50 story building. A read thru would take 9 hours/day 7 days/week for a year.
It's not possible to know them but they govern you. How can we be considered free people?
