Here's where I get to quote myself, boca


It's almost as if I said...
"Should they have lost their special Reedy Creek Improvement status, especially if it was mutually beneficial to keep as is...probably not, at least in my mostly humble and relatively uninformed opinion."
It's also almost as if I said this...
" If I was the Fl exec, I keep things as is."

My understanding the other side of the equation doesn't mean I think it's right, or that it's what I would do, as illustrated above. It means I've taken time to consider both sides and their intent.

So, I'm not sure what your point is...or even if you have one wrt to my post. I said I would expect consequences, albeit in the financials....i.e, stock price, revs, subscriptions, etc. I'd give you that quote from my post, too as I'm beginning to think you didn't read any of it before responding. So spare me your two bit autocrat bs.

As far as your rebuttal with Chick Fil A...you're right, they didn't even do something like be dishonest about a gov bill, they simply were a private company who made donations to an organization. And yet, they lost privileges. The broader point...their lobbying efforts (via donation) got them canceled, Disney's lobbying efforts (via vocal lies and donation) got them canceled. I'm consistent with my rationale in that neither was the right outcome. Are you? If so, great...that would bring the count up to 2 people.
