Full Title:This Is What a Currency Collapse Looks Like: Shopping Frenzy:
We Have A Lot Of Rubles Losing Value Every Second I dont need this car, he said with a shrug. He already owns two Porsches and a Land Rover. But, he figured the prices will soon go up and the ruble will probably go down. We are headed for a crisis, he said.
Electronics stores were packed late into the evening as shoppers scooped up iPhones and iPads at prices over $100 lower than what they cost in the United States. Apples Russian website halted online sales due to extreme fluctuations in the value of the ruble

No the rules are strictly controlled by the Grand Nagus.
Though they where written partially to help explain the Ferengi way of life and to add a bit of hummor to storylines if you read them most are both funny and so very true that they make you think.

I do recall in the series finale of “Next Generation”, they mention the Ferengi High Council was meeting to review additions to The Rules.

One of my favorites and so very true is:
#208: Sometimes the only thing more dangerous than a question is an answer.
