Chef Jim Posted April 23, 2022 Posted April 23, 2022 So now giving massive tax breaks to mega companies is fine? Those that celebrated the work AOC did in keeping Amazon out of NY should be cheering this. Yes, you should incentivize corporations to move to your state to create jobs and tax revenues. But those incentives should not last 50 years! 1
Doc Posted April 23, 2022 Posted April 23, 2022 Disney's got 13 months to do something about this. I'm thinking when their (sinking) stock hits a certain number they'll come crawling back.
ALF Posted April 23, 2022 Posted April 23, 2022 How much are the property taxes on Disney World? Disney was levied $296.2 million in property taxes for its theme parks in tax years 2015 through 2020, all of which the company disputed. It will get a refund of $7.8 million for tax years 2015 through 2019, an average of about $1.56 million a year. Jul 23, 2021 Right now, Disney pays taxes to Orange and Osceola counties, but all of the government-related services on Walt Disney World property—like fixing roads, fire department services and more—are paid for by Disney and Reedy Creek and not by county taxpayers. Its theme park megaresort near Orlando attracts around 50 million visitors a year, powering a Central Florida tourism economy that annually generates more than $5 billion in local and state tax revenue. The upshot: Disney usually gets whatever it wants in Florida

With their stock plunging and their revenue beign hit by Fauci-Wuhan virus and now what will likely be major boycotts, they're screwed. It's not like they can just pull up stakes and go somewhere else.

No taxes are going up, and the special status is not needed anymore. Disney will continue in Florida for another century at least. 29 minutes ago, benderbender said: It's amusing to me when the guy who is already a fan of taxing you more for entitlements rolls out the "its going to cost you more in taxes" argument.

There will be no increase in taxes because if it happens Disney tax revenue will cover whatever the bond payment is anyways

Anyone who thinks that Disney was being magnanimous by taking a loss with the Reedy Creek Agreement is fooling themselves. Or just a fool. 33 minutes ago, B-Man said: Gee I thought it was Desantis's fault ? When did those videos come out?

Big Blitz Posted April 24, 2022 Posted April 24, 2022 Hey Scott.....it's real simple. Disney, like it's Silicon Valley cousins, are enemies of America - a hostile foreign nation that heavily contributes to Anti American Wokeness. They have now decided like Bill Stime, women aren't really women. And your gender shouldn't be decided at birth. It's only a matter of time before teachers aren't allowed to say anything else... The world would instantly be a better place if Disney, Twitter, Netflix, Facebook, or Google didn't exist - or, at least had significant competition. Which, is impossible apparently. So we're going to need the State to deal with them. They've proven they will do it to us. People have no idea how this ends - I think I do. It's not going to be pretty. I can tell you, measures like this will save public education or at least slow its self destruction. Welcome to the War Of Woke Aggression Scott Adams. DeSantis is our Lucius Quinctius Cincinnatus. 1
Big Blitz Posted April 24, 2022 Posted April 24, 2022 What does "healthy inclusive democracy" mean you scum bag "I'm going......." The narcissism and self righteousness is off the chain. And it's ALL OF THEM. This whole thread is spot on 1 1
Doc Posted April 25, 2022 Posted April 25, 2022 I keep hearing about this $1B in debt being shifted to the municipalities. Is that just a(nother) talking point/lie?
