It would take time but they absolutely print money. It would work out fine for them.

Yeah probably at least a few buyers for a 43 sq mile amusement park

They can just walk away from it and start over elsewhere

Maybe Disney and the Republicans can take each other out. No good guys in that particular skirmish!

Between this, Dr. Seuss, and the fight against PBS, I'd imagine there's a growing sentiment in Tune World that the GOP should be taken out.

can someone briefly explain to me how Floridians could inherit Disney's debt? I'm familiar with stranded costs (future decommissioning/reclamation costs) around energy facilities and those getting passed on to the taxpayer, but don't see how this would play out in the current situation.

Disney paid themselves taxes for all the infrastructure work that normally a city/ county would do. For some reason these taxes are in excess of what can normally be assessed, and if the special district goes away, the county governments would have to maintain and build out needed infrastructure but with hundreds of millions less tax revenue.

The alternative to having a special district would be to condition development on Disney paying for infrastructure, but this can't be a retroactive requirement.

Does anyone have a clear explanation for why the bolded part is the case?

Interesting, thanks! And no idea on the bold part.

I think if they were gonna handle this properly, they should have cancelled each and every costumed weirdo individually, one by one

How much is Disney to blame for the existence of furries?
