I do not think the Governor made a smart decision.

Disney let a handful of people pressure them to go woke and their tanking stock reflects Americas response.

Anyone who wants to cry about moral ground let's not forget when Obama's IRS went after conservative business owners.

Politics have become down right dirty but if you stand by idle you will be walked all over in today's environment.

It's nice to have somebody willing to fight back against people who try to extort and bully their way into what they want.

Hope the link works, if not do a Google search, the Florida taxpayers could be on the hook for $2 BILLION if this goes through.

I hope this does not go completely political.....

Not as gloom and doom as MSM makes it appear. The monies will move from one account to another. Those revenues will not be lost, merely show up in another column.
But nice attempt on their part to back Disney and slam Desantis.
Orange and Osceola counties will be impacted at first, but they will bounce back with revenue gains.

And you have every right to do that. They did something, you disagree with it, as an American you have every right to not patronize them.

Sadly, THEY apparently do not have a right to say what they believe. There is NO doubt why this action is being taken, it is a government action to retaliate against a speech that the government disagrees with - isn't that covered someplace in the constitution? Isn't free speech something we hear all the time on this forum. Or is freedom of speech only free when one agrees with the person being censored?

I hope some will look beyond the reason this action is being taken and see it is a direct attack on democracy in our country and a direct violation of the constitution.

VT here, I found the article interesting, I missed there were only 2 counties involved, but the potential financial impact was what I was trying to point out, made national news this evening. It will be interesting to see what happens next.

I really was not going to post this, probably my last close to political post. I will just go back to helping people.
