That ending is hilarious to me. Societies just don't do a compete 180° over the course of a year or so. Changes at that level are very, very slow. Taking centuries in some cases. But all of a sudden, they have taxes, social programs, environmental programs, etc...

I know Ferengis are portrayed as non-violent, but I would think makes such rapid, unpopular changes would lead to some level of violence/civil uprising.

Sometimes they do, but not usually peacefully. Revolutions lead to rapid changes.
