Local papers aren’t trying to hide what a mistake this s for Florida taxpayers. Looks like Ron has pie on his face!

He’s not wrong. Also, I can’t imagine that DeSantis wouldn’t have considered the financial ramifications for the people Florida before his move. Let’s see how it all shakes out.

Shapiro is such a goddamn weirdo.

I hope this sinks him. He is such a whiny, tiny, turd. What a stupid fight to pick. He's so little and mean that he's abusing the legislative process to punish the state's largest employer and largest tourism draw.

What message do you think this sends to other employers who might have been considering moving here? What do you think this says to the business community about what life would be like if - gd forbid - DeSantis were to become president? Chaos, recklessness, a total disregard for taxpayers or employers.

Aw, someone has their feelings hurt. This send the message that a big corporation cannot tell the state what to do and think. It’s one thing for Disney to disagree with the Parental Bill but to actively try and get the law dismissed is a whole another level. It’s Disney who doubled down and decided to start this culture war.

A massive number of employers are moving to Florida particularly out of finance in NYC. I'm a Floridian and I think it is much better for taxpayers for Disney not to have this Reedy Creek entity. At present Disney does not have to work with the Florida Water Management districts.

Yeah I remember the thread about this. It was like one guy who was retirement age.

The Governor’s press secretary who’s assuring Floridians that they have this all figured out doesn’t even know who owns this major network affiliate.

Go woke and go broke is going to be DeSantis' presidential rallying cry.

Just look at the spiraling stock at Disney and Netflix.

The entire market spiraled this past week. And I mean the entire market. All sectors were in the red.

1) Try to get a new a CEO who can smooth things over with the State government
2) If that doesnt work they should pay off their autonomous zone's debts to the bond holders (otherwise I suspect bond holders will be left holding the bag).
3) Petition to be entirely in one county. Kind of crazy for them to have deal with emergency services of 2 counties.

That's crazy and they would be violating their fiduciary responsibilities to shareholders. Why should Disney pay the bond debt the company is no longer liable to pay. The state has made it the responsibility of the taxpayers.

Bibles should have never been in public school classrooms.

I’m into bright and Shapiro is smart as a whip. No wonder the rubes find intelligence to be “weird”.

Going in circles again, I see. Opposing the law is not a "whole another level." It's free speech. Corporations are people, my friend!

I commend the first poster's English, but you might want to review how the word "other" can be used in English (usage is often confusing in English). I am sorry that in whatever country you are in there is not a government that is ruled by the people and where freedom of speech is a foreign concept. We often actively try to get laws dismissed or made here. It's what we do every day and it's not considered "starting a culture war". We know we are better for having these conversations. I'm sorry that you live in a place where this is not allowed.

The only rubes are the ones worshipping Shapiro's supposed intellect. Meanwhile, the rest of us with more than two brain cells to rub together do not find ourselves slack-jawed in sheer awe of his junior high debate team rhetoric and can quite easily spot all the flaws in his "logic."
