There was 27 pages of hypothetical debates removed. - - - Kidding

If the hypothetical debates were targeted for removal there would be approximately only 18 pages still visible.

Well actually, Publix is #1, Disney is #2.

Okay, so they are the largest taxpayer in Central Florida. Over a billion dollars.

I can't really find concrete information on the largest driver of tourism in Florida, but Disney is definitely one of the largest.

For a fun fact:
"Orlando’s population grew by more than 165% since Disney World opened, according to the U.S. Census Bureau. Its population of 287,442 as of July 1, 2019 is almost triple its population of 99,006 in 1970." link

Orlando would not exist as it does today without Disney, point blank period.

You mean orlando would still be affordable to live in? When can we send disney packing? I prefer the affordable living conditions.

It'll be affordable, because without Disney, Orlando collapses.

Great news! There are lots of places in FL to live if you want affordable living not next to theme parks or the tourism corridor

There are plenty of places to move to that are very affordable to live compared to Orlando….a lot with little to no jobs available. Even right in FL there are many rural counties that are cheaper to live in. Those places probably closely resemble what the Orlando area would be like if Disney never arrived in FL. There’s also a reason that people aren’t moving there in large numbers.

Ahhh I forgot living in the middle of nowhere should be a pre requisite for affordable living.

Or maybe housing on a pure level is amazingly broken. And hell I’m conservative. Housing prices shouldn’t outstrip inflation but they almost always crush it. My personal gain has been about 140% in a 6 year period. That’s nuts as somebody that will directly benefit I think it’s gross.

It’s basic economics of supply and demand. Housing is always cheaper when there’s little demand. The more successful an area becomes the less affordable it gets. The market sets the prices. In those rural areas people would gladly take more when selling their homes but they aren’t getting the offers.

If only Disney would start buying up 25,000 acres around where I live, that would really help with my retirement planning.

Just ask homeowners in San Jose and Santa Clara Counties what Silicon Valley has done to property values.

There is Kissimmee where parts of the city is wall to wall tourism central by Celebration and rural Kissimmee with dirt roads, trailer parks, 55 and up communities in areas where it was like Disney never arrived.

Nothing like a derail based on trite, shallow “advice.”

 

[ParentsOf4]

Just scrolled through the last few pages.

Is this thread about RCID or real estate prices?

I don’t even know who’s supposed to be moving..,

I did dirty deletes to make life easier for the mods.

2 New filings in CFTOD v Disney. Nothing big, just notice of appearance and designation of email addresses for two CFTOD attorneys.

They will argue that this is part of the administration's retaliation.

Again, see Fuller v Carollo in Florida's Southern District, where code enforcement and law enforcement were weaponized against a political enemy.

Just closing up the Fuller v Carollo tidbit.

Carollo was found guilty and has to pay $63.5 million in punitive and compensatory damages for abuse of power, following a now familiar story of weaponizing government power to silence critics.

No new filings as of 2pm today.
