Idiot doesn't seem to realize that's a 15 year construction project.
No no no, you see, they're going to MOVE Disney World, not start a new construction project. That would just be silly ;)
Yeah let’s just lift up an area the size of San Francisco (minus the needles and human feces) and move it to another area
It worked in Spongebob Squarepants, right?
PUUUUSH!
I like that leftist have identified their intelligence is on the same level as Patrick Star
" WHY DONT WE TAKE DISNEY WORLD AND..
PUSH IT SOMEWHERE ELSE
The construction jobs are a bonus. That's tens of millions of dollars being injected into the Texas construction and utilities industries along with whatever jobs the park brings along with it. Any tourists who come to Texas to visit the park in the future are bringing in money from out of state, which gets disseminated through the park employees and utility companies providing service and into the state economy. The cut taken by Disney themselves is a relatively small piece of the pie.
From a fiscal point of view it's a great deal. Though as a Texas native I can't say I really like the idea of another large park. I guess it depends on where they wind up putting it.
That is a big state, and it would need a lot of land. I would guess the western hills area.
Probably somewhere in the East.
There isn't anything in west Texas except for Lubbock and Amarillo in the panhandle. It's mostly desert or flatlands. That presents three issues; no infrastructure, no employees, and no customers. All the largest population centers in Texas are Eastward; DFW, Galveston, and Houston. That's also where all the tourists pass through thanks to DFW airport.
It wouldn't be a great deal for Disney. The time and capital it would take are too burdensome at this point.
