Too often, no realistic economic analysis is performed to balance the lost tax versus the positive impact for the area. Perhaps some deals are worth it. Others are not.It's time for us to demand that politicians not give away these incentives. At the end of the day, it's unfair to the people who are already there.
Certainly there are going to be repercussions for changing their status, but I believe the state granted their special tax district status with no stipulations on retracting it. If that's the case, then the state doesn't need a reason, therefore it doesn't matter why.After listening to people more of ally educated than myself ( like Ben Shapiro) I’m going to believe then when they say that Disney will most likely sue on the grounds that the company is being discriminated against based on speech and the changes to their tax status will be thrown out as a 1A violation.
There are also apparently lots of issues regarding debt for services in those areas that would need to be worked out which could lead to tax payers footing the bill.
You're talking about something that happened over 50 years ago. How many people were in those counties in the 60's when this was considered?It's time for us to demand that politicians not give away these incentives. At the end of the day, it's unfair to the people who are already there.
With Disney stock going down, do you really think they would build another Walt Disney World? It took over 4 years after breaking ground before opening, and at that time it was a parking lot, a couple hotels and a Disneyland like theme park. Not to mention the years it took before building. Walt Disney died before they started building Walt Disney World.Fort Bend county is the epicenter of Karendom.
Ain’t no way Karen B. Nimby will allow Disney near her McMansion.
Besides the land in Fort Bend is too valuable or unavailable to build something as huge as a Disney complex.

It's still swampland, if you ask me. And worse, morally so.Playing devils advocate…as I understand it, there wasn’t anything there but swampland before Disney?

Disney supposedly bought tens of thousands of acres in Montgomery County for 'Disney Texas' back in the '70s, a summer trip by company executives give them a reality check - the weather was oppressive. I believe it was sold in the early 2000s, when the area had appreciated substantially.'Fort Bend County is a unique place' | Judge invites Disney to consider county for `new resort

Good news for the Ft. Bend county people
Get woke, go broke! I like how he makes it sound as if it's just the Disney CEO's statement that brought on the retaliation. No mention of the many Disney World employee pedophiles arrested, or the leaked video conference call stating how they have been injecting gayness into Disney as a whole. It's not just due to their stance against the school bill.MSN

ETA: I was told the story of them buying up the land back in the '90s, its not an internet rumor.
