If you read through all the deception and chest-thumping rhetoric, Death DeSantis left Disney with all of its "special treatment"

It's largely true, although there area a couple crucial things to consider. Reedy Creek emergency services will now be under DeSantis’s control. The reason Disney sounds like the happiest place on earth and the reason you don’t hear about every time tourist jumps from a hotel balcony is because they’ve been allowed to maintain some decorum on spreading news. That’s gone.

The possible tax burden for the citizens is still considerable; this in a town that sports drug program hotels, homelessness and pawn shops within 6 minutes of the park’s front gate.

And it places a donor to DeSantis on the 5-man board hand-appointed by him to monitor the area and its dealings. An arrangement already under scrutiny for pay-to-play.

No, Disney’s not worried. DeSantis is king of the ant hill. Disney is K2.

They [b][u]ARE[/u][/b] a bunch of morons. And offense definitely intended.

To be fair, the bill did rename the "Reedy Creek District" to "Central Florida Tourism Oversight District," so there's that.

DeSantis had a problem: if he dissolved the district, the law creating the district said the state would be responsible for any outstanding debts. And the district has about $1 billion in outstanding bonds to be redeemed over time. So the only option was a cosmetic re-naming.
