Oh, for heaven's sake. That's just not true. You obviously have no concept of how a bill becomes law.

Both the House and the Senate have to approve a version of a bill which is the same. Both the House and the Senate need a quorum present to vote on the bill. And then after both the House and the Senate approve a bill, the President must sign it.

There is no way on earth that a bill could become law with only three congressmen signing it. You need to read the Constitution, my friend.

Not to mention the history of the Federal Reserve Act, which is probably too boring for someone who has a problem reading legislative histories - no offense, that's almost everyone. It takes a certain type of mind to be able to fathom this stuff. Start with the Constitution.

P.S. Quorum in this case means a majority of the members, i.e., more than half.
