Hillary says she can break up the banks IF they get too big.

from the debate:

We have Dodd-Frank. We can use it to break up the banks, if that's appropriate.

They are already bigger than they were when they destroyed the economy.

How much bigger do they have to get before Hillary thinks it would be "appropriate"?
