Disney loses against Desantis, Florida will now take back control over Disney fiefdom.....

[struth]

Link?

haha

 

[Coyote]

Why isn't it unconstitutional for the Florida government going after and punishing Disney for their constitutional right to speak out against their government, without retribution by that government?

Seems like the govt is blatantly breaking the First Amendment?l??

I suspect if this legislation actually passes it won’t be upheld in the courts. In particular tbe part about “being responsible for debts” since the bonds were part of it’s contact with the state?

haha

Exactly.

We both know it's bullxit.

 

[The5thHorseman]

and half way through the american people had a. midterm election rejecting his demafasict agenda and putting a check on him by giving the house to the goo

the Gov of Fl won in a landslide in addition the people of FL made sure to keep his party in control of the state house

Biden beat Grifty by more than 7 million votes.

nope personal property taxes are a real thing i. FL. Disney will have to pay them now

so? what does that have to do with today?

 

[rightwinger]

Florida almost certainly wants to make a deal with Walt Disney Co. to avoid prolonged litigation with one of the state’s most important employers. No “deal” can be made with Disney unless Florida satisfies the claims of everyone other than Disney who could stop it, which means either canceling the dissolution or replacing Reedy Creek with a substantially identical district.

That leaves only one major item for negotiation: how far Florida goes in taking over control of the district. And because Disney’s legal case becomes stronger the more control Florida tries to take, Disney likely will continue to have fundamental control over the district.

Disney Spat Leaves DeSantis Few Options for Reedy Creek District

Disney’s Reedy Creek district—or something like it—will almost certainly be in place for the foreseeable future in Florida, either by court intervention or legislation. The question now is how much oversight the state will enjoy over this uniquely powerful and corporate-controlled district, says...

Biden was elected for a 4 year term.

This is the stupid xit that results when you try to add beef to the dogwhistle.

Reedy Creek’s outstanding debt prevents it from simply being dissolved due to constitutional protections against a government passing laws impairing its own contracts. Its enabling act makes an explicit promise to bondholders that the state wouldn’t alter or interfere with the district’s powers to carry out and maintain its projects or to collect its fees and taxes.

 

[struth]

Show me that they haven't.

that was the entire point of the “Home Rule” law dumbass

i know, thankfully we have a midterm election though to slow down his demafasict agenda…the people clearly had buyers remorse and made sure he and his party didn’t that’s a mandate

In everything in this world people have egos. There are millions of people in employment in our nation who fell into shit and never even sweated in the work they had. The Reedy Creek Fire Department never fought real fires. Or were real firefighters in the sense they put their lives on the line. Imagine doing 20 years and getting a great pension for just showing up. Just one free money example.

So are you cutting a check to Disney for what's theirs....or are you just gonna take it?

Disney can pay their own goddamn bills. DeSantis said he ain't giving them jackshit. Those stupid Yankee tourist paying $150 each for a ticket to get into Mouse World will be paying the bills.

 

[The5thHorseman]

Duh...because Disney paid for it.

And Disney pays the local municipalities for services.

You're ignorant

That's the agenda that has put 9 million Americans to work.

Disney paid for the infrastructure.

There's 1 billion in bonds outstanding, and debt service of 50 mill/yr.

Thru gerrymandering?

 

[rightwinger]

In everything in this world people have egos.

DeSantis is just grandstanding for his base.

In actuality, there is little he can do that would not force the state into lengthy litigation with a powerful corporation

What will happen is the state will receive an additional seat on the Reedy Creek board and DeSantis will declare victory
