Florida Senate, on a 23-16 vote, just passed legislation ending Disney’s tax privilege, self-governing power & special exemption status

If you’re trying to tell me a business is far more efficient than the government you’ll need to argue with someone else.

Medicare costs less than private insurance.

Will also have to hire people to cover services or purchase it from sources.

Disney levies property taxes on its own property to the tune of $169 million per year. They will no longer be able to do that, the county will…..at the valuation the county puts on the properties.

 

[Tumblin Tumbleweed]

Nope, not how it’s going to work out.

You are wrong, as usual.

Billion+ in debt service and the task of staffing...

Pay up florida man.

It's the same principle that stops people from just going to the bathroom in the streets.

Been to SF lately?

I haven't either. We moved out.

The billion in debt has yet to be worked out. $169 Million minimum in new property taxes for Florida.

The state will instantly incur a billion in debt from this, but hey, let's celebrate the $169 million a year, dinkus.

Who says? The link provided earlier said it hasn’t been decided.

A billion is 1/96 of the yearly state budget, Dipsqueeze. How many years on the bond?

There's no 'working it out!' Are you a fucking simpleton?

Dig deeper. Read beyond the headlines. Follow the history of the fucking money, for fucks sake.

"Democrats have been abusing government and forcing their will on society unjustly. ... Now it's OUR turn!!!"

Hey, you know how this works.

You either sit at your open window with a rifle, waiting for the next black hat to ride up, or you hire a sheriff.

No, the number is wrong.

The law allows parents to sue teachers directly. It is simply a means to harass gay teachers who run afoul of xians.

Even without the law, school districts can enact and enforce policy restricting all teachers from "sharing" information about what the do with their free time, and with whom

Gay teachers - or ANY teachers - have no business sharing their private lives with students.

Teachers, gay or otherwise, shall not sexualize my children.

Period. End of story.

Just heard on the local news.

The Florida House voted to do away with the Reedy Creek District.

The Senate passed it yesterday.

Now all it will take is DeSantis signature.

Disney is fucked.

That will teach the Libtard bastards to bring their queer and trans agenda here to Florida and to try and take on DeSantis.

Hope Disney stock drops even more.

Excellent.

Disney needs to keep it's nose out of politics.

Lest it get chopped off.

I gave you the best gift one human can give to another: an option to try and think for yourself. Form an actual opinion instead of a crappy meme or partisan talking point. You have the Innert00bs. I don't do your homework.

You seem to have no interest in doing so. That's gutter snipe magaturd material in a nutshell.

Don't bother replying.

The problem with Republicans endorsing this kind of governance is that they have no room to complain with when Dems use it to fuck with them. That's fine, as far as it goes - they deserve it. But the rest of us don't deserve it.

Why don't you all just take your culture wars and shove them up your big dumb asses?

Hey, Newsflash, Dems ALREADY use this to fuck with conservatives.

They've been doing it for YEARS.

And it's about damn time someone pushed back.

Can a county force an incorporation of an area into a city?

Good question.

I guess no, but I really don't know.
