DeSantis' hand-picked Disney World board claims that giving out employee discounts is 'unethical.' But it's a nonsense argument made by an entity with ethics problems of its own.
Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis wants us to know how slaves learned their trades in bondage, but he gets everything dead wrong.The district had been created in a deal between Walt Disney and Florida’s then-Republican governor, Claude Kirk, signed into law in 1967. The goal was to enable Disney to avoid the honky-tonk character of development around Disneyland in Anaheim, and instead keep the Florida property in perfectly coiffed white-bread comeliness.
Since then, the governor and the company have been in open combat. Just before the changeover, Disney signed long-term agreements with the old board, effectively stripping its successors of all their authority over development. In any event, DeSantis told CNBC on Aug. 14 that he has “basically moved on” from the conflict and urged Disney to drop its lawsuit. Disney’s response was “not so fast”: It promptly filedfrom the DeSantis administration for trampling over its free-speech rights.
