Disney

 It's interesting that a huge corporation thinks that it should be able to dictate to the elected government of FL regarding the laws FL chooses to enact.

Remember all the APL's who insist that corporations aren't people, don't have rights. and the like?  Apparently as long as corporations are on the correct side of the APL, then it's all good.

Of course remember the live action remake of Mulan?  The one that was filmed in the PRC within proximity to actual slave labor/concentration camps?  Somehow Disney didn't have a problem with that sort of oppression.   As we've seen Disney be more outspoken about efforts to push certain left wing narratives in their entertainment product, we've also seen Disney remove certain things in order not to offend the CCP.  How interesting, I guess Disney is really much more interested in money than moving forward a left wing agenda.

Over the weekend, I learned that Walt Disney used a legal loophole (known as blind trusts) to purchase the land in FL where he built Disney World at lower prices.  Essentially by hiding his identity behind a trust, he was able to control the market forces that would have driven up land prices had he made his purchases in a more open manner.   It could be said that he defrauded land owners out of the rise in prices that should have accompanied this sort of acquisition.   

Further, the special status that Disney Corp has enjoyed has meant that they have not been paying their fair share of taxes to FL for over 50 years.  I'm guessing it's meant a "loss" of billions of dollars from various taxing jurisdictions over the last half century.

 Seeing the APL rushing to defend a big corp who hasn't been paying their "fair share" for decades is pretty amusing.
