    I 100% agree and think DeSantis is in the wrong here - but I think it’s worth pointing out that if we hadn’t spent the last century having government entities heavily propping up giant companies so they can get an edge over all their competitors, then this sort of retaliation wouldn’t really be possible.

    I’d be totally fine with Disney losing all it’s special priveledges, about time actually - but not because they happened to piss off one whiney politician

      Yo be fair, go anywhere in Florida away from the coast to see the difference Disney made there, and then the special district starts to seem like it was a great deal.

        It still is. The tourism dollars the mouse brings in is absolutely worth letting him have the district.
