News Reedy Creek Improvement District and the Central Florida Tourism Oversight District

[lazyboy97o]

The local Floridian doesn’t pay income tax because of the tourist industry.

Orange County collects a variety of other taxes from local residents.

 

[Andrew C]

Definitely

Only a Sith deals in absolutes. Muahahaha!

Sorry, got sidetracked.

…which in no way negates my statement.

We have no state income tax thanks to Disney, Universal, etc.

TWDC will be the big winners here. They get to DUMP 1 to 2 billion of bond debt to the Florida taxpayers AND when they don't want to spend money to make improvements in WDW they can just gaslight and blame it on RCID being dissolved.

Just stop. If Disney didn't want to spend what they spend on Reedy Creek services they could have stopped of their own accord years ago.

But they didn't need to spend money, they issued bonds to avoid paying for them.

I don’t think you understand how that works

 

[lazyboy97o]

Who you voting for again?

Do you know who's running in my locale? Being a hypocrite does not negate a position. The openly stated purpose of why the Reedy Creek Improvement District was dissolved being right or wrong has nothing to do with me. Instead of addressing the merits you have instead chosen to concoct an entirely baseless narrative.

Bonds are not free money, that is not how they work.

Bonds don't avoid payment they defer it

 

[Disstevefan1]

Well in this case, TWDC will for sure avoid paying these!
Besides TWDC always working for Now and today, pushing off paying for anything as long as possible. In this case they deferred their way into avoiding payment all together

 

[BuddyThomas]

sure she is

Excuse you. If you are saying that she only deletes ignorant right wing political posts, you are entirely incorrect. I cannot believe that I am defending the deleting process on here, but I am hardcore left and gay, and they delete my posts if I breathe the wrong way. So, you are totally, totally (did I say totally?) incorrect.

#10 on this site's Terms and Rules. You can find them at the bottom of the page...

 

[peter11435]

Respectfully disagree.

Then you’re wrong. I’ve had multiple posts of mine deleted and been blocked from threads.

 

[Prince-1]

Wrong! If there is one criticism that's invalid about this forum is that the mods are unfair when it comes to political posts. To quote Prince Escalus: "ALL are punished!"

Well The Mom never deletes any political posts from the Green Party. Total favoritism if you ask me.

 

[The Mom]

I didn't keep a tally, but a lot of posts from all sides of the political spectrum were deleted. I even deleted posts that I liked!

I believe it was 87!

 

[Prince-1]

I believe it was 87!

Is that just for the last hour?

 

[Disone]

Okay, I'll bite - what exactly did you want him to say? 'Screw you Desantis, we're taking you to court!'

Disney knows that they literally can win this by just running the clock. In reality, getting $2b taken off their books in exchange for 'losing' the district is a trade they would make 99% of the time.

The FL gov will come to them sometime in the spring with some sort of compromise, and then the actual negotiations will start. Iger didn't have to do anything in his first week, and doesn't have to do anything at all.

I agree. I previous post got deleted That doesn't happen much to me so I guess I'm honored? So I'll keep it short and sweet. I don't think it's spineless. What Iger did was try to de-escalate. That's not spineless. That's smart.

 

[Chi84]

Its my opinion there is no right or wrong unless someone has the exact number of posts deleted and who has been banned from the site and locked from threads until that happens its heresay. I never said only certain posts are deleted. I said imo more of one side is & happens quicker. To say im wrong definitely is just irresponsible unlessyou can back it up with actual numbers.

What is it about the rule against discussing moderators’ decisions that is eluding your grasp?
