Also: Why aren’t we at least the Farenghi?

Well... Arguably we're closer to them than we are to Star-Trek era humans. Though some of these are what I tend to think of as Conservative values, corporate (and personal) greed knows no social boundaries.

The Ferengi culture was centralized around the concept of greed and earning profit.

Ferengi society and culture was highly misogynistic and patriarchical. As such, laws and cultural norms reflected and deeply institutionalized such misogyny and discrimination.

Appropriately for a materially obsessed species, the Ferengi demonstrated interest in cosmetic enhancements

In Ferengi philosophy, the pursuit of profit at any cost was the guiding principle for all traditional Ferengi.

Greed, deceit, distrust, and opportunism were highly prized values among Ferengi

exploitation was the rule. The formation of labor unions was forbidden

Ferengi who broke the law could be punished with the loss of all property and assets

In accordance with their extreme, crony capitalist mindset, Ferengi historical records on 21st century Earth described Wall Street with reverence.

The importance of business was felt even in Ferengi government, as powerful businessmen could easily become powerful political figures

The Ferengi represent the logical evolution of the current US (and arguably global) focus on capitalism and profit, and certainly represent our likely trajectory if conservative movements the world over have their way.
