Disney has offered its first serious comeback to Florida and Governor Ron DeSantis, and it seems like a pretty clear assertion that they may not have fully figured out what this homophobia-driven move will mean for the state. According to CNN, the Reedy Creek Improvement District is the name for the big crop of land that Disney World is on, which Disney has controlled since he wanted to turn it into his perfect society. Reedy Creek has about $1 billion in outstanding bond debt.
Disney believes that Florida will break its original agreement to form Reedy Creek unless it comes up with $1 billion to pay off its debts. Reedy Creek says it will continue to operate and maintain its properties until the governor starts counting how many zeroes are in a billion.
We already published a story last week about how expensive it is going to be, so that's saying something, it seems like this act of intolerance could end up being even more obscenely expensive for Florida than we previously thought. It's just a matter of waiting to see which side will back down first, Disney or Florida, because everyone got mad at CEO Bob Chapek when he tried to stay out of it.
