5. A face that represents the epitome of Capitalism.

I bet Mrs. Roosevelt would be turning in her grave to think that her face would have the dubious honor of being plastered on our paper money.

Ferengi Rules of Acquisition ; http://www.sjtrek.com/trek/rules/

Once you have their money ... never give it back.
Never pay more for an acquisition than you have to.
Never allow family to stand in the way of opportunity.
A man is only worth the sum of his possessions. (From Enterprise, episode "Acquisition"; sloppy script-writing, as rule 6 (see above) was already given in DS9)
Keep your ears open.
Small print leads to large risk.
Opportunity plus instinct equals profit.
Greed is eternal.
Anything worth doing is worth doing for money.
A deal is a deal ... until a better one comes along.
A contract is a contract is a contract (but only between Ferengi).
A Ferengi without profit is no Ferengi at all. etc....
