    A district tax board cannot make a contract with a corporation that locks the legislature out from making future changes in perpetuity. The WDW resort is not the Vatican. This is going to court. In any case, Florida can make it increasingly tough on Disney to do business in the state. When a government and a company don’t like each other, it usually doesn’t end well for the company. It’s just sad that teaching transgender ideology to kindergartners is the hill Disney decided to die on.

    1. You should read a book. Start with the Florida constitution, contracts clause 4. Florida making it harder for Disney to do business is just crapping where they eat, but we already know that Duhsantis is not a smart man.

    Yep, there is a new sheriff in town … his name is Mickey. 😂 While Ron was mugging for the cameras and acting all big and bad the mouse cut him off at the knees.

    I am on Disney’s side. He is just power hungry.

      Oh good for you Ann because Disney is not power hungry at all, is NOT in bed with the communist Chinese government and is not trying to shove destructive social engineering down our throat!

    So after getting outmaneuvered by Disney, which has, I guarantee you, far better lawyers and contract law experts than the State of Florida, King DeSantis is now spending taxpayer money to hire high flying law and accounting firms to try to regain his personal sovereignty over Mickey Mouse. DeSantis may be playing to the cheap seats in the MAGA crowd but he is underestimating what kind of firepower Disney can bring to the table in this fight. He is shameless and everything that he’s doing is in the service of getting the Republican presidential nomination but he doesn’t have the stones to really take Trump on and is even supporting him. As an example, take his proclamation that the would not allow Trump to be extradited to New York if he’s indicted. A hollow boast if there ever was one since there’s this thing called, now what is that name, oh yeah the Constitution. And this just in Ronnie boy. Even, if somehow, you do get the nomination, moderate Republican, independent and swing voters are not going to buy what you’re selling.

    I think the contract states that the new Reedy Creek board can not use the Disney name or any of it’s characters. Disney has the right to protect it’s trademarks and patents.
    The other part of the contract states Disney has to give it’s permission to build and have a say in the building architecture. Disney owns the land therefore it has the right to say what is built on it’s property and the buildings architecture.
    The contract was made to protect Disney from DeSantis the dictator. DeSantis thought he would be running Disney, so Disney protected itself. The board’s job is to take care of the roads, provide infrastructure, and to collect taxes NOT to run Disney. Talk about government over reach.

    DeSantis NEEDS to learn, Don’t bite the hand that feeds you.
    In Florida, 99% of companies pay no corporate income tax
    Disney is one of Florida’s biggest employers, and had a $75.2 billion annual economic impact on central Florida in 2019.
    Don’t let personal issues and beliefs into business dealings.
    Both CEO (at the time) and DeSantis now should just exist as prior and let Disney continue to run as is and bring in those $$$$$ into the florida economy and be thankful that it is self governing and has done a wonderful job these past 50 year and will continue without hinderance from a Wanabe , for the next 50 year.

    Desatan is the worst. Little man syndrome makes me wonder how small his Johnson is. He reeks of insecure man with a big truck.

    The bill goes on about not mentioning anything having to do with sexuality and the Florida legislature includes any teacher from even mentioning they have a same-sex spouse. By law that has to apply to opposite sex couples, but that’s not how it’s enforced.

    It’s immoral and hypocritical to treat gay couples any different than hetero couples.
