The Ferengi have problematic cultural characteristics, so do the Klingons, the Bajorans, the Cardassians and other species that appear in DS9. But, unlike TNG we get to see the people who make up these species as people, not the sole representatives of their species. The Ferengi come out much better when seen up close and personal. It's one of the reasons I love DS9 so much.percysownerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01524512417823662079noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-62608758265556954692015-08-10T11:00:13.966-04:002015-08-10T11:00:13.966-04:00What an enjoyable read, Joseph.
