They really hate money, its an anathema to them, that is why they do this. Disney built up a large war chest and the resorts allows Disney to do a lot of retarded things like this. However, the fans are coming to the resorts less and less, their IP has been tainted beyond repair and Disney has started the decline into bankruptcy. In 5-10 years, Disney will be sold off for parts.
Disney was once iconic Americana, from the animated shorts (which were considered a lot more toned down and wholesome/innocent than what the other studios were putting out), to the general patrioticness of the Disney parks in general .. I guess that's something Americans themselves might not notice, but when you're visiting from another country, yeah. Flags, presidents, Americana.
Walt was in the business of selling the concept of America to the world, and he was very good at it.

Which is probably the real end-game goal.

And that's why they want to destroy it.
