TBayXXXVII 2,553 Posted April 22, 2022 I've always been of the mind where if Liberals are upset, then you're doing something right... but this has a lot of things that can go wrong. Even if Disney backs off their on their "wokeness" in the product, they see over 50 million people every year. It would be so easy for them to trash Republican's in their everyday workings at the parks and brainwash kids into being pieces of garbage (Democrats), at an early age. No a good move. This is very short-sighted. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Now they have to go to the town to get things done. And now they are at the mercy of Bureaucrats like everyone else. But I think it’s going to get worked out. Disney needs to assure the rest of the state they are going to stay out of what the people want. They’re out of control. This law has nothing to do with them. MYOB.

No, it’s probably not a win strategically for Disney because I’m sure they would rather police themselves. But specifically financially I’m not sure if it will be much of a loss if at all. But it’s hard to tell because I can’t find many specifics, pretty much all the articles say is they save “tens of millions in exemptions from regulations, taxes, and fees.” Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

At some point I will likely need guidance counselor advice for my kids, especially if we’re still in stupid-ass China in in three years. So, I hope I can turn to you at that time. My eldest and youngest are 8th and 3rd graders thriving in the Chinese system. My son is in 7th grade. The Chinese schools didn’t suit him so I pulled him out and enrolled him in an online school in the US. We’re good for now though. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think there's a lot of speculation as to what exactly the State is going to do. Things always get exaggerated in the media. I mean, the "Don't Say Gay" bill has nothing to do with people being gay. That said, I don't really think Disney is paying a lot for their police force. There's not really a lot of crime there. The average salary for a police officer in Florida is about double of what Disney pays theirs. The state could just have a couple of administrative officers assigned there, and just hire security guards if that's actually going to be what happens. But again, I think liberals are exaggerating the extent to which this bill extends. If it doesn't cost Disney anything, then I'd expect that they wouldn't care if this bill gets imposed. Apparently, they're not happy at all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I haven’t seen where anyone on the Disney side has commented) it probably has something to do with the fact that they’d simply prefer to govern themselves, and not necessarily for financial reasons. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Apparently, they're not happy at all. Below are a series of articles from the local news station. Looks like I’m probably right but what else is new around here: The key number in this one is that apparently Reedy Creek operates at an annual loss of $5 to $10 million. They also have $1 billion in debt which will now be the taxpayers’ responsibility. From the article, “the main effect for Disney is more red tape” - https://www.wftv.com/news/local/heres-what-dissolving-disneys-reedy-creek-could-mean-taxpayers/V2HN3MBIVFCP5EYZXT7UC4X4KA/ And regardless of the impact to Disney, it seems clear this is not good for the local taxpayers. Could be looking at a 20-25% increase in property taxes - https://www.wftv.com/news/local/end-reedy-creek-disney-wont-pay-more-taxes-you-will/3TK6ASNJT5EXHICW3DQ3ZHEZYA/#:~:text=Disney still pays the same,that every other landowner pays $1 billion in debt would mean about $2,200 for a family of 4 - https://www.wftv.com/news/local/florida-legislature-votes-strip-disney-self-government/7MWMCWBCA5DXZG4IBIWYUEALCQ/ “While Orange County would acquire Disney’s land and debt, there wouldn’t be that much additional money for the county” - https://www.wftv.com/news/local/orange-county/disneys-debt-is-about-be-central-florida-taxpayers-problem/SIDQMVZ55ZED3HH2ATXQYNVIPQ/ Bottom line, this really seems like a lose/lose for Desantis.
