Thats because there is a lead time bias, give it time and cabbage will beat all of them combined...
You give the cruciferous too much credit, sir. True, today's cabbage is merely a genetically-engineered johnny-come-lately in comparison to things like the Ten Commandments, but aside possibly from cookbooks, I see no arena in which one could expect any surge in cabbage-related verbiage...
Permit me to issue and control the money of the nation and I care not who makes its laws. — Mayer Amsched Rothchild, a prominent European banker in the eighteenth century
You cannot run a modern globalised economy without a central bank. It is not just a coincidence that every even marginally significant player has one. If (like certain religious fundamentalists) you would prefer the world to return to the eighteenth century or some even earlier age, I suggest you curl up in your den with a bunch of period books and imagine yourself to be there. No serious person would want to live there in actuality...

The constitution allowed for the U.S. to coin money. The U.S. does not need fractional banking, don't need a privately owned Federal Reserve.
The U.S. can coin it's own money and use its infrastructure as collateral. In no way do we need the Federal Reserve with a few men getting rich off of us and now tells congress and the president what they will do.
That's what I've gotten from the books I've read so far.
No one’s safe when freedom fails,
and good men rot in filthy jails,
and those who cried appease, appease,
are hung by those they tried to please.

This has been repeatedly attributed to Hiram Mann.
I am not sure whether this is the same Hiram Mann who was one of the famous Tuskegee Airmen.
On a lighter note, one of my favorite quotes is from that politician noted for his pithy pronouncements, Calvin Coolidge: Visiting lady at the White House: Mr. President, earlier this evening, I had made a bet that I can make you say more than two words. Coolidge: You lose.

Keep reading. You have a long way yet to go. Let us know when you get to the part about the distinctions between the Federal Reserve System and the Federal Reserve Board of Governors. But before delving into that, maybe you should go back and reread the part about so-called ownership of the FRS...

Writer Dorothy Parker is the woman in the story, but it's veracity is not established. Parker is also alleged to have said, upon hearing that Coolidge had died, How can they tell?
In any case, Coolidge was actually both an eloquent and frequent speaker. His command of the English language was widely admired, even by many of the intellectuals of his day. He was the first to deliver an Inaugural Address over the radio. He was the first to deliver a State of the Union Address over the radio (many before him had simply transmitted the required statement in writing). He was the first President to appear in a sound film. He gave more live press conferences in his terms than any President, before or since. The monicker Silent Cal, despite the legends, is not a particularly well-fitting one...

Wow, I find it hard to believe that clever Dorothy Parker would fall into a trap like that.
I've heard the "How could they tell" quote, though--always thought it was pretty funny.
