As a side note, aren't cast member still getting paid only $6 or $7 an hour, like they have been for the past several years? and with "new" attractions like Stitch's Great Escape costing $10 million (with the exception of the $100 million Expedition Everest) I think Disney could be doing more with there extra cash, which, it looks like there finally doing.
Unfortunately Disney is doing more with the money... BUT that more isn't in any way related to Disney. Disney owns ABC and ESPN which have shelled out hundreds of millions for the rights to broadcast sporting events (NFL etal)... well guess what whether you like football or not, some of your money you shell out to the mouse ends up paying the NFL and the dog lover Michael Vick. Its the sickening fact of a large holding company like Disney. Money from one operating unit like the Disney parks ends up supporting other things that are less deserving. It makes me long for the day that a KKR will take over Disney, chop it up into its respective pieces and return it to its place as an stand alone company and not part of Eisners' mega corp.
