Although much in the news now, this little remembered Disney enclave in Florida had its inception in an insidious plan by Walt Disney to create his ideal of a corporate state AKA "company town".

Reedy Creek Improvement District was created in 1967 as part of Walt Disney's "Florida Project".

Although Disney died a few months before it's creation. Disney had personally lobbied the Florida legislature to create Reedy Creek as part of his vision to create The "Experimental Prototype Community of Tomorrow" (EPCOT).

Disney had planned for EPCOT to be a county government unto itself, where he could establish Disney as the government and law unto itself.

The Reedy Creek covenants allowed Disney to establish it's own zoning and it's own independent police force to enforce it. All public services would derive from Disney and access to them would be controlled by Disney.

In Reedy Creek, Disney planned to outlaw labor unions. Individual ownership of property would be forbidden, all property would be rented from Disney.

No one would be allowed to live there without being a Disney employee and retirees would not be allowed to move into the community.

The employees live there, are un-unionized, face strict standards and requirements, are paid low wages, and face eviction if they were to leave their job.

Disney was planning to create his vision of a merger of corporation and state without democracy or due process.

The plan eventually died without Walt's direct involvement but many of the Reedy Creek covenants still exist.

The attack by DeSantis on Disney is a textbook bill of attainder in his mad attempt to suppress free speech.

Disney should take it to the Supreme Court. It's an easy win.

Walt Disney was kind of a commie.

You aren't one of nutballs on here. I think I even follow you. Is that for real?

Normally I would agree with you. However, the legislator unlawfully carved out a special treatment for Disney. The state of Florida gave Disney privileges that it gave no other individual or corporation. Florida decided to take away the special privileges, Disney had no right to them, and therefore has no recourse.

Somebody should've sued the state of Florida to red Disney of those special treatments and privileges from the beginning.

Unless of course everybody gets the same kind of special treatment that Disney got.

In fact, I'm for everyone getting the same treatment Disney got prior to this deal going sour.
 
Throughout Florida, more than 1,800 active special districts provide more than 80 specialized governmental functions (see the Official List of Special Districts). Some of these special districts operate in multiple counties, such as the Water Management Districts. Other special districts serve a small neighborhood, helping residents develop and maintain common areas. Popular types of special districts include:

  • Special districts that allow new residential, commercial and industrial developments to occur by financing, building and maintaining common infrastructure and facilities (for example, roads, landscaping, water and sewer lines, street lighting, and drainage systems).
  • Special districts that help attract businesses and retail establishments to specific areas by redeveloping, improving and maintaining commercial areas and facilities (for example, sidewalks, building facades, bicycle lanes, parking facilities, signs, and roadways).
  • Special districts that protect life and property by providing fire control and rescue, flood control, and emergency medical services.
  • Special districts that provide major infrastructure and facilities serving large areas (for example, airports, roads and bridges, expressways, sea ports, waterways, and utility systems).
  • Special districts that help make Florida a desirable place to live, work and visit by providing civic, health, educational, conservation, parks, sports, and recreational facilities. For a detailed list of special district special purposes, please see the Official List of Special Districts - Special Purposes Cross Referenced.
 
Walt Disney was kind of a commie.

Actually, Disney, if you have to slap a political label on him, was an un-abashed fascist and virulently anti-Communist. A strong supporter of Joe McCarthy and his anti-Communist pogrom. Disney was strongly anti-union and openly critical of what he termed "Jewish influence" in the labor movement.

However, both Fascism and Communism become identical when their goal of establishing total control over the populace. Two heads of the same coin.

Does any corporation for profit on any of those special districts?

I doubt it

This was a special carveout for Disney Florida decide to take away.

It won't even make it to court.

Actually, Disney was a supporter of Eugene Debs, the founder of the American Socialist Party.
 
And he ate live babies. And worshipped Satan.

Actually, he was worse. Disney was a Utopian. Someone who believed that one person, or a select group of persons, could, given enough power, create a perfect world where only their own values prevailed.

Satan worshipers are innocuous by comparison and even the most voracious appetite can only eat so many babies in his lifetime.

DeSantis did nothing to Disney. Their special carve-out to the Monachry aside, it IS Disney attacking Desantis.

Now, the People are pushing back against the "Woke Cult".

You remember that racist White Power community in Florida? The Villages?

Yeah. They are a special district like Disney.


 
I think the verdict would be 9-0 in Disney's favor if Disney took this to the Supremes.

DeSantis's bill of attainder was intended to suppress free speech. It's open and shut.
 
Like I said. Trumptards hate free speech.
Which is funny as fuck.

You're too stupid to even know who the 'Trumptards" are.

Wanna know why you look like an effin groomer?

Because I have to this date. have yet to case a vote for Trump.

Not one time have I voted for Trump.

But you pulled the Trump ard like the idiot that you are. Too fucking funny/
