Actions, consequences.

Also, let them make enemies of Disney and hopefully decimate their economy. Reap, sow.

Disney's is booming in Florida. Unless they are wiling to move the property, they are going to have to keep investing in it. Do you really think Iger is going to decide that DeSantis is mean and write off Disney World and move to a more welcoming state?

I think nowadays anything can happen, and usually does.

Company is committing suicide. Stock murdered over the last 2 years.

Sure because they may have to shut down operations in Florida? Lol Disney Florida operations are 5% of the companies revenue and the parks have seen large increase year over year from 2020. Disney yearly revenues are almost 140% larger vs the state of Florida’s yearly budget and 34% of the state budget is federal money. If you back that out Disney revenues are 2x the size of Florida state budget.

How DeSantis doing in the polls after Iger went after him? DeSantis and his minions will be out of jobs next cycle because Disney will flex its muscle.

You support corporations' controlling government.

COVID and an economic downturn will do that. Now that the economy is strong and at least for the vaccinated, COVID isn't an issue, Disney, at least the parks part of the business, should return. The films and media side, maybe not so much.

Their stock hit an all-time high in early 2021 so it's not covid. The streaming unit is what's dragging down their stock. Despite bleeding cash like crazy, Disney+ is still losing subscribers. It's a mediocre offering.

I doubt politics has much to do with it. Conservatives can easily drop Bud for Coors but there's no substitute for Disney.

Universal is becoming more popular than Disney World, for various reasons. Illumination has been putting out hits while Disney's films have been losing money or breaking open. They haven't gotten a billion dollars in a while. Little Mermaid, Elementals, Ant-Man 3, Guardians 3, Eternals, and now Indiana Jones 5, are all either disappointments or flops.

Did you know that Universal Studios hosts a Pride night? And that alone likely makes it the queerest theme park in America because unlike meetups or unofficial Gay Days, no other U.S. theme park offers a themed event for Pride on park property

In any case, people keep coming, so there’s hardly a shortage of Florida residents. Construction is booming.

And yet

Ohs nos! Punishing people for committing crimes! Whatever shall we do?????

The law, signed in May by Florida Gov. and GOP presidential candidate Ron DeSantis, seeks to further criminalize undocumented immigration in the state. It makes it a third-degree felony for unauthorized people to knowingly use a false identification to obtain employment. Businesses that knowingly employ unauthorized workers could have their licenses suspended, and those with 25 or more employees that repeatedly fail to use the E-Verify system to check their immigration status can face daily fines.

Why is it a felony for the employee and a fine for the employer?

When has a successful theme park that would cost tens of billions to replicate ever just upped stakes and moved to another state? [/quote

What they could do is instead of opening a new section at Disney World, they can open up attractions in another state. It would be better if they could reduce the demand in Orlando, but Disney is doing it by making it a trip for rich people, even charging for fast passes.
