    Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis signed a bill Friday nixing the Walt Disney
    Company�s sweet tax deal with the state � after the entertainment giant
    opposed its so-called �Don�t Say Gay� law.

    Asserting that the company was aiming to �inject sexuality� into its
    content, DeSantis said he was not �comfortable having that type of agenda getting special treatment in my state.�

    Enacted in 1967 to attract Disney to Florida, the so-called Reedy Creek Improvement District gives the company near autonomy � including control
    over police and fire units as well as infrastructure management � at its properties.

    The abrupt nixing of the 55-year-old pact came after Disney objected to legislation DeSantis initiated that banned instruction on gender identity
    and sexual orientation for kids in kindergarten through the third grade.

    Supporters of the law assert that it shields kids from inappropriately
    sexual material in the younger grades and protects them against forms of indoctrination.

    But vocal critics � including top Disney brass � have bashed it as a
    �cruel� attack on the LGBTQ community and dubbed it the �Don�t Say Gay�
    bill.

    �Our goal as a company is for this law to be repealed by the legislature
    or struck down in the courts, and we remain committed to supporting the national and state organizations working to achieve that,� Disney said
    after the bill�s passage.

    President Joe Biden said Friday that Florida�s �Parental Rights in
    Education� bill signed by DeSantis signaled a shift in the Republican
    Party.

    �It�s not even conservative in a traditional sense of conservatism,� he
    said. �It�s mean, it�s ugly. Look at what�s happening in Florida: Christ, they�re going after Mickey Mouse.�

    DeSantis resumed his attacks on Disney�s ideological priorities just
    before signing the bill at a Friday press conference.

    He said the special tax district was a �partnership that developed early
    on with Walt Disney � I don�t think Walt would appreciate what�s going on
    with this company right now,� he said, referring to the company�s founder.

    The controversial legislation is scheduled to take effect in June 2023, a window that could allow the two sides to hammer out a revised deal.

    With the special district�s dissolution, the Orlando theme park � one of Florida�s biggest employers � would be subject to the governance of Orange
    and Osceola Counties.

    DeSantis addressed concerns that the new structure would saddle those municipalities with current Disney debt, which is estimated at $2 billion,
    for the services they would pick up.

    DeSantis rejected those concerns and said the company would now be
    confronted with a much higher tax bill that would cover costs.

    Opened in 1971, the attraction employs about 77,000 people and is one of
    the most visited theme parks in the world.

    And if Disney takes its payroll and tourists to anther state?
    Does Florida think it can outlaw an exit? You can't tax a company
    that leaves. You can't force an out of state company to support
    local economy and sales taxes. And if Disney sells all its
    property, it owes no property tax, and depressed property values
    reduce property tax collections.

    Florida's temper tantrum might cost them far more than Disney.

    Disney has too many millions invested in Florida to walk away. DeSantis owns Disney.

    First off, your comments on this topic sound like someone who has no investments, or has no interest in ever making any. But since you
    apparently need some advice, I suggest you view the following video of
    an interview with the former CEO of McDonald’s. It explains that
    although you (as a CEO) may have an opinion about a social topic, you
    might be wise to keep it to yourself rather than destroy the company for
    which you work.

    "Former McDonald’s CEO: CEOs Need To Focus on Profit, Not Social Goals" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-wCSSdWef6c

    Now I am sure you will still maintain that a corporation like Disney
    could just pack up the park and move to another state. Apparently you
    are not aware that there is a massive underground support system build
    into Disney World. Not easily relocated. I will close with a question:
    Are you related to Rudy Canoza or did you attend the same school he did??

    Disney was dragged into this when it was faced with a workforce
    revolt and possible consumer boycotts. Florida didn't concern
    itself with how it would impact state businesses despite the
    number of businesses leaving and avoiding the southeast over
    republican political bullshit. TI is threatenning to leave Texas
    because transgenders can be very productive employees and TI is
    more concerned about employees that increase profits than setting
    up bathroom monitors on its premises.

    "Former McDonald’s CEO: CEOs Need To Focus on Profit, Not Social Goals"

    Yeah, Starbucks gets hammerred over this. Unlike Disney, they
    aren't fighting with city governments. So they adjust company
    policies and don't change locations.

    Now I am sure you will still maintain that a corporation like Disney
    could just pack up the park and move to another state. Apparently you

    Unless you can point to a law or enforceable contract.

    are not aware that there is a massive underground support system build
    into Disney World. Not easily relocated. I will close with a question:

    They don't have to relocate that. They can eat the loss and build
    anew. That's what it comes down to: does Florida make itself too
    expensive, so that it's cheaper to abandon, move, buy land,
    rebuild. That's all Disney is going to look at. It has no
    loyality to Florida or Anaheim. Its loyality is to its
    shareholders.

    Are you related to Rudy Canoza or did you attend the same school he did??

    Like the rest of you commies, you don't know how capitalism
    works. Businesses borrow from banks and/or sell bonds to pay for
    capital improvements. Since those have to paid with interest,
    before getting the money they explain what they will do and make
    reasonable predictions of resulting profit with which to pay off
    the loans and bonds. Thanks to Reagan it's rare for a company to
    save for capital improvements; debt is safer, and people don't
    extend credit unless they are sure they will get their capital
    and interest.

    Credittors take the risk if Disney fails to profit from a move,
    not Disney. Disney will continue to evaluate its position, and
    then decide if it can convince lenders.

    Other states and cities will offer lower taxes, government bonds,
    zoning changes, and other incentives. Look at how teams move and
    get new stadiums if you want to learn how it's done.

    Stupidity noted. The only time duration matters is loan and bond
    maturity dates. And loans won't be made without a reasonable plan
    to pay them off on time. You've never had a mortgage nor credit

    And you're still a dirty communist.

    World?

    Stupidity noted. The only time duration matters is loan and bond
    maturity dates. And loans won't be made without a reasonable plan
    to pay them off on time. You've never had a mortgage nor credit
    card.

    And you're still a dirty communist.

    Being ignorant and stupid doesn't make him a communist. Please don't
    insult Karl Marx.

    Demanding government and mobs get to dictate to businesses and
    their property does make them commies. Being ignorant and stupid
    just make them conservatives.

    I was a farmer for 45 years. I know all about government and mobs dictating to private business.

    Believing the price of petroleum doesn't affect you makes you ignorant and stupid.

    It matters to shareholders.

    ... And loans won't be made without a reasonable plan

    True. I bought my farm on a private contract, and paid it off in seven years.

    ...nor credit card.

    I have three credit cards, use two, and pay them off every month.

    I had a gf who worked at DiscoverCard. She said they called people like me 'deadbeats' because we never had any interest charges or late fees.

    And you're still a dirty communist.

    Another example of your ignorance.

    How long will it take Disney to recoup the cost of moving Disney World?

    <CHUCKLE> Dictating to a business that they should pay their taxes
    like everybody else is Communism, eh?

    The USDA identified the bad farming techniques that could result
    in a Dust Bowl. Farmers ignored them and created the Dust Bowl.
