DeSantis vs. Disney: Florida governor strips Disney of self-governing status | LiveNOW from FOX

- Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis on Monday signed a bill that gives him control of Walt Disney World’s self-governing district, punishing the company over its opposition to the so-called “Don’t Say Gay” law.
The bill requires DeSantis, a Republican, to appoint a five-member board to oversee the government services that the Disney district provides in its sprawling theme park properties in Florida.
“Today the corporate kingdom finally comes to an end,” he said at a bill signing ceremony in Lake Buena Vista. “There’s a new sheriff in town, and accountability will be the order of the day.”

BREAKING NEWS: Disney strips DeSantis appointed board's authority and Disney retains power.
Disney is making a bad name for themselves. We don't want them to be a separate government! They're supposed to be a kids play ground. I don't see where governing themselves would be a positive thing
@@boss-ih6uk Disney world hasn't had any problems until now. They refuse to go along with Desantis' discrimination against gays. So you're saying that every person in Florida is prejudice towards gays, when you say we.
@@Acdc5 stop pushing the gay agenda on children
@@boss-ih6uk they been governing themselves since it was created so what your point? He made it a problem because they refused to agree with him politically.
@@boss-ih6uk u big dummy

What about it? Are you against freedom of religion?
@@IceBiiRd What religion?!

Good for Florida. No company should have that kind of power. They should have kept their mouth shut
The first part I can see agreeing with. That last sentence is not acceptable.
@SureJan you must lick windows for fun huh. Do some research before you chirp up
@@HercuLync go woke go broke. Let the free market decide what's acceptable. Free market is saying they should have kept their mouth shut
@SureJan I have no bad opinion of gay folks. One of my best friends is gay, beautiful husband.
WHAT? Aren't you people for freedom of speech but a private company can't voice its disagreement with the governor otherwise legal action will be taken against them
YOU ARE LITERALLY PRAISING AUTHORITARIAN FASCIST ACTIONS ON THE BASIS THAT YOU DONT LIKE WHAT DISNEY SAID AND YOU CALL YOURSELF "PRO FREESPEECH"????
I never knew Disney did NOT pay taxes for its functions...😊. Thankyou and stay safe
Disney was paying all the taxes in the Tampa Orlando area in exchange and we weren't .Thats why its affordable down here .My question is. now that the deal is over are we gonna get stuck with higher taxes because Disney isnt covering us ?
@@pauobunyon9791 yes we will, and Disney leaving Florida is definitely in play. They have the money to take the entire park apart and move it to Georgia or somewhere else without batting an eye. Don't think for a second that they aren't considering it.
@jim M , i really hope they do

@@novafiddler1712 Your logic is no opinion if you haven't governed a state....I bet you're a trumper🤣🤡
Can you now focus on the absurd prices in rent. A lot of us here in Florida are going to end up homeless.
The rent is being raised because the demand to live in Florida is higher. It’s basic economics. DeSantis has absolutely nothing to do with that. Blame corruption in other states being the reason people are flocking to FL and TX
That's the point though... focus on all the hot button issues instead of actually doing things that would benefit people.
Ever heard of a free market? People from liberal hell holes like CA and NY are moving to Florida, causing an increase in Demand.
No, DeSantis only cares about culture wars and whatever is trending on Twitter
@@GoldWulfMusic It’s actually retired Boomers going to Florida en masse
DeSantis is going to wish he did not do this.. the billions Florida will lose if they close those gates alone will cost DeSantis the next election in the very least. This is nothing but a who's is bigger? argument, and DeSantis is going to lose.
Sensationalist comment. Disney parks are money makers and money talks. They are too big to pull out or reduce their parks even with more taxation. Low hanging fruit. First rule of smart business is stay out of politics or you become a target.
What a COMPLETE A HOLE!
NAW DISNEY AINT GOING ANYWHERE THEY MAKE TOO MUCH MONEY AND WHERE ELSE WOULD THEY GO? FLORIDA IS THE BEST real estate for Disney. I type in caps its just easier to see
Disney is not going anywhere. They’re taking on huge losses from the studio division because of Iger’s buying spree in his first tenure. Cruise ships are only starting to recover and their long term future is uncertain. Theme parks are their only sure thing right now.
@@mamabear5289 What a COMPLETE A HOLE!
The Disney folks had it made and anyone that caused the elimination of this advantage should be fired by Disney.

Disney caught a meatball in the mousetrap...lol😅😅😅

Wouldn't it be funny if Disney left Florida all together?
So!!!let them go!!!!!
@@irynavaughn1986 This would tank Central Florida. We don't do anything BUT tourism
Where can they go? Lol, nowhere else in the country has that combination of landscape, space & weather. It's gonna be too expensive to relocate
@@Akeem_768 Texas
Florida has been doing really great. there's been a mass exodus of large companies out of Chicago everyone heading to Florida but I don't think they're going to Orlando.
It would be funny if Disney left Florida it would be a big F U to desantis and FL
The amount of pure ignorance in these comments is mind boggling. First off, Disney oversaw a district so they acted as any county meaning they have revenue and debt from running the district. Where do you think that debt should go when one eliminates an entire self running district? To surrounding districts. Blame your Governor and not Disney. And for the sake of sanity, please stop using the word woke. Such a subliminal ass word.
I don't love in Florida but have been going to Disney since 1976......I have watched disney go down drain and change so much for the worse these past few years. I'm happy they are finally getting what they deserve!!!!!
Disney, time to pay the price of screw all.of us.
If you allowed them to pull down your financial pants, stop complaining about there being no lube, friend.
Hahaha...
How is Disney paying any price?
Jesus Christ, the GOP thrives on the ignorance of its voters.
How has Disney World changed?
Too bad customers and taxpayers, not Disney will pay the price.
Disney made Florida!!Ill give you the beautiful weather and beaches.But who the Fu%k would have visited Orlando in 1970.A dump town surrounded by swamps.Disney made deals so they wouldnt be at the mercy of backwoods politics.I worked at Disney back in college and it sucked.But it was a class A operation.
That municipal debt will eventually shift to FL taxpayers in Miami, Tampa, and Tallahassee.
It was predicted by the Orange County Tax Collector that Orange and Osceola County residents' property
taxes will double, maybe triple. Those two counties as well as surrounding counties DEPEND on $$$ from
tourism. Bully Boy little feelings got hurt so let's punish everyone. And for uneducated commenters who don't live in Florida or that do, there are other 'tax districts', for example THE VILLAGES, that were not targeted. Hmm, can we all guess why? And guess what party controlled the Florida Legislature that passed this idea of ' special tax district'?
🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘
@@bakerman1971 BM154 in da house!
DeSantis specifically mentioned that Disney and Disney alone will be paying back the debt they owe. it won’t fall onto the local taxpayers let alone any other residents. watch the video again.
That’s what they voted for 😂😂😂
Hope being not woke was worth the 25% increase in property taxes 😂
@@AgentFulgoreBasedDepartment You can't possibly believe that, right? Disney and Disney alone was paying back this debt BEFORE DeSantis changed their legal status. Now it's the local county.
If you do, I have some great oceanfront land in Iowa to sell you. Seriously, educate yourself.
Disney is trash anyway, im more excited with the idea that maybe in my lifetime we will see youtubers doing the abandoned theme parks visits and showing us a run down Disney land and Disney world.
DeSantis taking the phrase "Drain the Swamp" literally
Excellent keep on draining
Apply the same principles to banks and insurance companies. What is conservative? This is a complete reversal
@@Alanstrainworld agreed! I hope he secures healthcare assistance and proper education (vetted by the people who actually write the books that all other states and countries use) for all Floridians next!
Except the people of them counties NOW will have to pay that debt down....good job
he is the swamp
Lmao Disney just dunked on Desantis.
That firefighter guy sure did have a runny nose 👀
Well, I’m sitting here reading this. My nose is running. My eyes are also watering. Man, y’all reach for things way too much.
It’s snowing where he lives 😂
Everyone getting cold. 🤪
Always someone stupid 🤡
He's probably sick of Disney!
Disney is considering relocating to Atlanta GA. Western florida's economy completely will crash
I'm happy to see Disney fall.
When I get as younger, I grew up with most Disney movies, but they have pushed their woke BS enough.
Disney should pay their fair share
so should the rich people that ron protects
they do. they are a completely self sustained city - now Florida residents will have to help pay for the infrastructure that Disney took care of themselves. DeSantis is lying.
I vote democrat and I agree. In fact, every corporation should pay their fair share.
They've done more than their fair share. They've done more for the people who live in their community than the State of Florida has done.
@@klickerpup Under you, the people of Florida would bow before the corporation.
No. Disney is not some magic Kingdom, they're a monopolistic business which needs to be brought to heel.
There's no telling what sins we'll uncover, considering how many leftists and predators we've already arrested from disney.
Why would they be allowed to govern themselves when companies have a history of doing the wrong thing
They developed and laid infrastructure to actually create the roads, trash collection, water lines, gas lines, etc. and for that Florida gave them self governing status when they created Disney world.
Governments also have a history of doing the wrong thing.
@@harrisoninja I didn't know that, thank you for clarifying
@@luvbig41 So true!
100 million Disney tourists a year. They have the right to do as they please.
I Agree with Him! Yes! Go after Walt Disney! They been getting away with to much Evil Stuff!
Disney never should have been given those privileges in the first place. They aren't a nonprofit organization or place of worship. So why the tax free status? Disney also already has a government called the Florida state government under DeSantis. No theme park or amusement park deserves these privileges. Let Disney pay their share! Give the money to the families, elderly, sick, disabled and veterans of Florida instead. The good people of Florida deserve that at least.
That’s laughable. Disney should pack up and leave. See how he appreciates loosing the tourists that only comes to Florida because of Disney
We want a governor like DeSantis here in Wisconsin!!!! God bless him!! I grew up going to Disney on a yearly basis with my family but, due to their woke ideologies- my family and many more want NOTHING to do with them ! Walt Disney is smiling down right now as maybe - just maybe - they’ll AWAKENED and go back to their original family values!!
@@tr7938 You’re entitled to your opinion as am I. We will simply agree to disagree. Thank you.
The governor of Wisconsin has no power. The Republicans run the house, and senate in that state.
It will ensure the company will endorse the next democratic presidential candidate running for president in the USA
Disney has been a company that supported the dems for decades already
@@bakerman1971isney has been a loyal Republican donor for decades contrary to what MSM drama would make you believe
Losing them is a pretty big loss for the GOP, especially since this behavior is likely going to scare other companies who will not only jump ship to potentially the Democrats, but will probably steer clear of investing into Florida sites and jobs since they have to deal with such an easily offended governor
@@Maya-ls3ky Exactly. This is a political stunt by DeSantis
To further expand on this, Disney has basically been around for most of Florida’s history and has closely worked with essentially building the state from back when it was nothing but swamps
Culture wars that nobody will care about in 5 years from now are not worth Florida damaging its relationship with the company who helped build the state
Disney should be focused on making money, not donating to politicians. The parks make money and the investment in Florida is too big to pull out or reduce.
Finally the Good Governor DeSantis is humbling the arrogant pride of these corrupt Corporations! Keep on keeping on Mr. Gov!
Lol. He's a damn fool and isn't humbling anyone. Disney governing themselves means Disney pays for and provides, roads and other infrastructure, fire fighters, police, medical personnel, trash removal and thousands of other things within their properties that are normally funded by taxpayers. Who exactly do you think is going to pay for those things now? Yeah, Florida tax payers. The jokes on you.
Yea Disney made over 30billion dollars on Marvel alone not to mention their Star Wars franchise, National Geographic’s, etc. I doubt Disney has anything to be afraid of. Theirs a reason why elephants are afraid of mice.
Hopefully Disney will just shut down the park and abandon it. Then, let's see how many votes this proto-fascist gets next time.
Mickey Dondald and Goofy had a meeting and they voted to say F*** you Ron
disney essentially said "don't tread on me" to desantis and actually backed it up
Disney needs to pull out of Florida even though it would hurt the economy of Florida they would ruin the DeSantis loser
Sure and themselves in the process because they just said goodbye to $9 Billion in yearly revenue.
Bravo Florida good job God Bless 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🙏🙏🙏🙏
Please, please, please Mr. DeSantis, come after the University of Florida!!! It's so UNFAIR that they get to enjoy tax free everything, the burden falls on the rest of us, our taxes keep going up, property taxes are outrageous, they go up but my paycheck doesn't.. NOT FAIR!!!!! Why should I lose my home/property after 20-30 years of paying for it? Why are Floridians threatened every year, pay up or else???? Personal property should have never been allowed to be taxed!!!!
DeSantis did right to the left. without kids there would be no Disney, stop picking on kids.
It is a joy to watch the parade of wambulances for all the "woke" people opposed to this and crying gloom and doom over it.
Woo as a conservative I’m so happy desanos is making government even bigger
@@PeaceMastah So, you're saying you are okay with private fiefdoms in Florida?
The governor of a state just had a tantrum and retaliated against a business for using the first amendment.
If you find joy in being against the bill of rights, you must really hate America.
Fast forward to March 29. 😆😆😆
This didn’t age well , Disney got you
all they did was file a lawsuit.

Implying Disney does not follow building codes is just crazy. While Florida falls in most big storms Disney opens the next day without major issue. This is a con Ron and you know it.
He should take over all the churches. Talk about not paying for anything. Tax increase will be coming!
Actually that's not true, educate yourself before you open that BIG mouth...
Disney needs to pull out of FL along with other companies. DeSantis deserves to be slammed for his authoritarian power grab.
yeah that will only cost them 100 billion plus. I'm sure their investors will love the losses.
Right after Google turns back on the down thumb counter. Lets go Brandon!
Republicans are supposed to be for small government and he is not acting like one at all. His power has gone to his head.
ive lived all across this country. been in florida the last 5yrs. Desantis is the most popular politician with his constituents ive ever seen in my life and its not even close. the ONLY people who seem to be unhappy with him are not living in florida, and seem to be heavily indoctrinated into some woke cult. floridians also could care less about disney. they dont really contribute to the economy in the way people think.
they pay horribly. the benefits are meh, the park is meh, the ownership wants your kid to transition.
they should ditch the park in orlando and head to california where the communist dream is in full effect. we dont want that here.
@@guy7018 That doesn't matter because Disney we dump millions of debt on the state. Right now there will not be because he hasn't really changed anything of significance yet. DeSantis is lying. They pay for there own government and that is still operated by Disney and will remain operated by Disney. He is just blowing smoke up our a$$es for polital ploy to run for 2024! But I couldn't care less about Disney.
All the more reason to stay out of Florida. Their streets will be as discussing as the rest of the state now. Glad we went before DeSantis took over. Will never go again.
This governor is nuts. Over the top crazy
This man is nuts Disney Will leave Florida soon.
@@charlespressley1178 there are other Governors telling Disney they can come to their state. Texas is one of them
Well i think this is fair, no one should be treated differently, regardless how rich you are
This is the kind of government I like to see. Tackling a problem with intelligence, and putting good, responsible people in charge.
Now in good faith DeSantis needs to lift the burden off people's First Amendment rights (freedom of speech and expression) by removing the unConstitutional 'anti-semitism' encumbrance.
And remove the other unConstututional lefty Red Flag laws‼️
And ban the mRNA bioweapons (not just in the C19 jabs) but in ALL the vaccines big pharma has said they have put it in, including the jabs for animals‼️
Good luck with your Diet Tyranny
This is why I love the state of Florida and have been here all of my life, and don’t want to move. Beautiful weather and sound politics.
@@tr7938 No, Floridians are a joke
Yeah, so let me know what the "problem" was that Florida tackled? Especially since it hasn't been a problem for over 50 years.
Thank God for my Governor!! I agree with this 100%
Your disgraceful
LOL 😂 BEST OF LUCK IN LA LA LAND...
You honestly think Desantis is going to win against Disney? Disney who with Marvel alone made over 30 billion dollars? Not to mention their Star Wars revenue. They’re National Geographic’s revenue. You think this smuck is really helping the residents of Florida? Disney who pays for their own land, waste disposal, fire department, all their taxes in two counties, etc is going to bend to this short term governor?
If Disney leaves is it really a big loss! They are spewing garbage under the guise of entertainment! And imposing all this trash on our kids and grandkids! As Americans we have to stand up to these bullies! Corporate Billies!
Disney is not going to leave. That move would cost them BILLIONS!!!! For what? They now have to be like everyone else?
Hey apple is leaving China and it’s dictator…you don’t think Disney isn’t big enough to leave Florida and it’s dictator government.
If they do their Stock price will flat line so they won't do that.
Take your kid to the park for free. Is it really that big of a loss
We have to stand up for our teenagers and adults as well. Disney needs to stop making Marvel movies (and everything related to Marvel), Star Wars movies (and everything related to Star Wars), and stop making National Geographic Documents. (Sarcasm)
We need to boycott everything Disney.
(Gullible minority fools who supports a governor (who won’t be governor for long) who relies on your stupidity to not understand how big Disney is.)
I am looking forward to the ramifications of this.

For those people worrying about extra tax burdens for the locals and footing the bill for new/additional services....

Do you seriously think Disney wanted to self-govern so they could pay more?
Well now you (as a tax payer) have to pay for it! :DDD
everything deplorables touch turns to crap. they are not creative, they depend on the creativity of others and will only run disney into the ground.
@@whatever3773 It never ceases to amaze me just how stupid the average democrat is. Read the law...Disney is still on the hook for the outstanding debt and they don't have any legal standing for a suit. Disney still must pay for all services(fire/ems, police, road repair crews, etc} , but an advisory group of 5 appointed by the Governor calls all the shots and can choose to replace any or all of these functions as they see fit. The policies used by Disney must be approved by the group of 5. This means no more WOKE CULTURE nonsense. End of story!
What the heck are you talking about - Disney had a free ride for a good 60 years. Disney has become an evil company that corrupts children's minds.
This should have happened years ago.
It's not all about money listen to what he says...
This was basically a hit job on Disney. I noticed no one was complaining about the money Disney generates for Florida. Also DeSantis is lying when he says the new board can force them to allow guests choices. He needs to remember Disney still owns the property and the business. You can force or implement policy on a private company. If Disney were smart they would close up shop and leave Florida. Then Ron can explain to the tax payers why he screwed them. Also if you believe the tax payers will not pay the debt you are kidding yourselves. Disney is a lot smarter than Ron and they will have the last laugh.
The fact you describe this as a hit job tells us all we need to know about your mentality. You're irrational. You're mad. You let your emotions get the best of you. I'm sure Florida would do just fine without Disney. If anything Disney needs to be good to stay in Florida because they need Florida more than Florida needs them. Why would you want them to be self-governing in the first place? That's all this is really about I mean you want to make it more about the Santos then Disney but it's really about what Disney does is not good
The fact that you have no idea what you're talking about but you still say Disney will get the last laugh and taxpayers will have to pay really just proves your ignorance is blinding you
Money talks, they are too big to fail but also too big to move. Disney isn't going anywhere and they are going to pay more taxes.
Also any costs Disney racks up is just gonna be pushed onto consumers
@@alphasheep99 I agree. Disney stock lost half its value in the past year. Disney is a joke.
taxpayers will be paying for this don't kid yourself
No citizens living in Central Florida should have to pay taxes with the amount of revenue they should have been getting from venues like Disney.
Disney was paying for everything in their area.
So you want to tax the largest employer into Oblivion? How conservative of you
sort of Stupid. Disney has a lot of privileges, and they invested huge amounts of money to build what they did. Ok, so now, you are going to take away this stuff, fair, but it WILL cost a LOT of money for you to take over the costs. Remember, Disney PAID for all the maintenance for roads etc, that now Floridians will now be responsible for.
No Disney-will be paying that with their taxes
Why would they in the future if they are going to be considered a regular business. Those expenses in the future will go to the taxpayers.
Congratulations to Desantis! He just caused the residents of that area the largest tax increase and administrative burden they have ever seen. But, stupid is as stupid does. Maybe someday people will realize and stand up against stupid and greedy political theatre and grandstanding for the sake of tricking people he is hurting into sending him money. But, who knows...
You obviously didn't watch the video.
You’re right. Stupid is as stupid does. Especially when you repeat talking points that have already been disproven. But hey having an IQ above freezing temperatures is something the left has never been accused of. You just proved that theory right once again.

Man you drank the Kool-aid didn't you? Nazis were fascists that actually were more left than anything lol although they had some right policies so honestly it is it's own thing
Here's some advice for Disney...move to another state..South Carolina would love to have you. Just think, Desatan, Florida COULD and SHOULD lose ALL that revenue!
will hurt the tax payers of Orange county, Disney's situation isn't unique. There are hundreds of other special tax districts in Florida, they literally exist to allow private companies to take over the funding of local government in exchange for providing certain services specific to their agreement with the state. In many cases the local government can't meet the needs of the local business or institution for whatever reason. i.e. disney brings too many tourists to be handled by local tax payers, a university brings in too many temporary residents to be handled by local tax payers, rural resource gathering or farming operation doesn't have enough of a local tax base to fund needed infrastructure
Now the taxpayers of FL will be paying for police, streets, and fire department services for Disney. Y'all have fun with that.
And Disney will be paying the state taxes, which will be more than what they were spending to run the place
Right but who cares they can afford it. Everyday people don’t want to pay more taxes in times of a recession
@@origamiknife7556 I don't think your figures are correct. Do you think the government is going to allow one of the biggest money makers in their state to be taxed into bankruptcy?
@@origamiknife7556 You still do not understand republican tax fraud, don't you? Big corporations don't pay taxes. Poor residents pay. Disneyland will never pay its fair share. They will bribe Desontis a few million dollars and Floridians will lift the rest.

OOOHHHH SO NOW DESANTIS is for TAX INCREASE FOR CORPORATIONS??? OR IS IT ONLY FOR corporations that don't back him???
Good for Desantis - he's helping the Democratic party
Like he did in Florida when? Your blind.
Biden, AOC and Buttigay is helping the Republican Party.
Yeah? How'd that last Midterm election turn out in Florida? Last I heard the D's lost freaking Palm Beach County and Miami Dade might as well be a goner 😅 They literally were one of the contributing states that regained the Control of the House to the GOP.
Lmao it’s crazy how democrats will watch this video and how fast they switch up to now be suddenly so concerned about too much government. Trust me, you don’t have to worry about us over here in Florida, we are taking care of it. If you are so concerned with too much government maybe take a closer look at your own states policies because I guarantee if you think this is a government overreach you would be okay with approximately 0% of what’s happening in your state. 😅
Deathsantis is so full of it. Disney brought in a ton of money to FL. Who's paying the salaries of this new board and the raises to first responders?

he is a bully; no one understands why disney was given this deal in the 60's: Walt disney did not want the state to pay for emergency services, repair roads on disney property. he does not mention the billons created by disney for Florida. thanks sheriff
Why would the state repair roads on Disney property anyways? You're spreading false rumors because it benefits your agenda. The business has always been responsible for taking care of itself the state has never been responsible for making sure businesses are being repaired and in good use
He is telling the TRUTH! Santos has screwed the State!
Walt Disney was pretty clear why he wanted these specific deals before he built his theme park there. Imagine looking at Cinderella's castle and seeing a Mariott hotel in the background. That would be magical right? Imagine driving on a pothole ridden road on your way to Epcot, that would be magical right? Disney asked for these specific tax breaks and exceptions so that he could make sure that his guests got a very tailored experience when going to his park. In exchange Florida got millions and then billions of dollars pumped into their economy.
Dictator
EVEN THE PEOPLE THAT VOTED FOR THIS GUY ARE GONNA TURN ON HIM. IT WILL BEE STARTING SOON VERY.
Why is that?
What’s next for Florida? I guess the police will be arresting people for no head covers. Disney needs to pull out and write the loss off.
Unless it's Mickey ears probably.
I'm honestly being sarcastic. But I love how the guy is acting as if this changes anything. This guy is still receiving corporate donations from Disney, just like any other politician whether Republican or Democrat receiving donations from their corporate donors.
@@jorgemartinez18 doesn't make much sense to strip Disney of it's corporate power if their hand is in your pocket?
Hopefully Disney goes under. Serves them right.
@@sheilajohnson6478 Really? Do you know anything? You probably think that archeology is just a bucket and a shovel. It's not that simple. Disney made one comment at the insistance of their employees to support the LGBTQ community and DeSantis attacked them. He said it wasn't revenge but he didn't take away the special districts of their airport, their sports stadium or the other 1900 businesses with this same tax districts built on swamp land that would never have built otherwise. This is a political stunt.
@@jorgemartinez18 thats one of the dumb arguments
How much tax was Disney paying Florida? Someone should look it up. 😠
How much is it going to cost Florida to take over control of that area?
Zero
@@goingmyway1071 Firemen, roads, schools, police, garbage pick up, etc aren't free. Disney owns a lot of land here.
Likely none!
@@joereilly8925 Turns out Disney is the largest tax payer in Central Florida and that it taxes itself to pay for the services that Orange and Oseola County will now have to provide. There are talks of Orange and Oseola County creating a special tax district within themselves for Disney rather than have the added cost of running such a large area with only 53 residents. There is also a billion dollar bond issue that the counties could get saddled with when Disney loses the district. Disney's land is over 27,000 acres or 40 square miles and resides in two different counties, which is why the special district was created. Universal Studios land is 541 acres or 0.84 square miles in one county. They are not the same.
Presidential material right here.
lol
DeSatanist 🔥 new book: “Angry Face Goat Rider “😂
Yea if you like Dicktators and hate capitalism.
Well done! companies should stick to what they do best and leave the politics out.
Yes let's stop the corporate political donations
Well done!
@Ellen Reyes- why is it a good thing? Your taxes are about to go up about $3,000 a year. Enjoy.
@@simplyamazed4059 I work 2 jobs, Monday through Sunday non stop to pay a rent that 4 years ago would have been $400 cheaper. Food right now is almost double the price it use to be. I go to the store and spend almost $200 every time on things that don’t last me 10 days. Gas is still expensive. We have an inflation caused by the government, because if you didn’t know inflation is create in Washington, that is kicking our ass and on top of that I’m still paying same amount of taxes than with Trump. You can fool someone else but not me. Democrats are destroying middle class people with little business, those are the people that is paying high taxes so Biden can maintain a bunch of ilegal immigrants benefits that most Americans don’t even have. We are being governing by anti-American party that cares more about Ukraine war than the health of our own American people in Ohio. Fu** Biden and the democrats and all the people that know all this and still support them. And fu** you.
I think it's amazing he's admitting on live TV that he went after a corporation based on his own political beliefs and everybody is just ok with that.
Especially since his party is notorious for not wanting government in their lives.
It’s about time a strong Governor with integrity uncovers the stink from that secret society… civil service at its best
@Steve Trivago Yea I always remember that time Disney sponsored the illuminati.
That’s…….. what everybody does?
@@evanduckworth9681 Name the others.
@@jonmh9668 ok. Every politician ever has made political decisions based on their political beliefs lol
DeSantis is a horror. How he was elected is beyond reason. Florida is an awful state.
That's your opinion and no-one cares...
@@tinafaye2985 Not just my opinion. Florida is moving backwards. DeSantis is poser, hungry for presidential power. He lacks empathy, compassion, and foresight. Florida is a mess and getting worse.
@@dinsdaledog Sad to see those such as yourself being so deceived...
It is time for Disney to shutter its business in Florida. Sad to see it go but it will go. Florida needs the living space, not Disney jobs.
It's about time somebody put Disney in its place! We are so FED UP with Disney constantly PUSHING their VERY BELOVED woke agenda down our throats!
Cheering for the government to retaliate against a corporation using the first amendment...they'll come for you some day.
Give an example of Disney pushing its VERY BELOVED woke agenda down your throat.
@@motorheadbanger90 I don’t have time for that.
@@thebaxman4459 Uh huh. Just what I thought.
@@motorheadbanger90 whatever
This woke world of denying personal responsibility needs to end, disney just does what's popular to make the most money.
Well spoken, my friend!
punish the company? thats a bad idea Ron wait till they pull out of Florida then you lose a ton of money and the state sucks worse then it is
U don’t understand
Disney will NEVER pull out of Florida. Name one state that would allow Disney to be like it has for all these Decades. Let alone flee and lose BILLIONS in the process. Name a state they could FLEE to? The money the spent to build up everything they have in Florida. The Decades to get to where they are NOW. They can NOT just pickup and move anywhere. That is just laughable.
Ley say Disney does that. FLEE!!! So what!!! Businesses have been flooding into Florida along with people. The state has been growing, unlike CA and N.Y. where people are fleeing. That just means lots and lots of newly opened up, ex Disney land to now build on. Disney would be bankrupt from trying to move. Not sure where they are going to move to that has the same type of weather. Most of the south is a RED State. The money and time that would be thrown away if they tried to move, let alone the costs to start all over again, Billions, Lost, Billions more to rebuild. Throw on the current economy, LOL. Clearly, none of you know anything about business. I do find it really funny for those saying Diskey should just move, and not think anything past that dumb statement.
Lotta hoopla for the board that maintains roads and basic infrastructure 😂😂😂
He's lying about the taxes
This is going to cost Florida a mega amount of cash....
It's worth it
@@donaldpfeffer8231 Perhaps. Unless, of course, Disney begins shifting large amounts of its assets out of state, since Disney is the largest employer in the state.
@@donaldpfeffer8231 No it won’t. Disney still has to pay taxes without the privilege of self governance.
No it's not.
I have no sides to pick in this matter, so I won't even say much. Having said that, it would suck if Disney leaves and all these individuals lose their jobs all for a political views spat. People matter more than your BS. All of these factions need to stop fking the people and get their act together.
People seem to forget that it's not average people applauding in these news conferences.
We're applauding in the comment section for sure...
@@thomasmcintosh2977 right!!!!!
“Florida man” That’s who’s applauding 😂
Brainless zombies they clap before he even finishes
Definitely ‘below average’ people…
Yeah baby! Another +1 for socialism! Government control!
You have a dictator not a govenor
Texas needs a DeSantis
You go Governor ...!!! what a great man !!!
Dump Republicans Now
Ron DeSantis for President 2024🇺🇲
