This is a bad move that will cost desantis heavily if it goes through, especially after Iger went full blown woke recently. If they don’t let Disney die, hand back Reedy creek and try to buffer them while Disney grooms kids Trump will have a field day.
Losing Reedy Creek isn't the blow for Disney that a lot of people seem to think it is. Eliminating its special taxation status puts the local and state goverments on the hook for a lot of debt which was previously the burden of Disney alone. Orange County and Florida taxpayers could end up having to bankroll a significant amount of Disney's debts.
You don't even need to get into the shady details of studio accounting to see that is an absolutely retarded argument on its face. Reedy Creek is Disney, so any debt accumulated by Reedy Creek would be Disney debt. Even if there was some hypothetical way that Reedy Creek, which is Disney, could magically accumulate debt that wasn't Disney's, the government could declare that debt is still Disney in the process of taking back Reedy Creek because it is the government, creator of rules, the monopoly on violence, the origin of force.
