PING!.................
Can’t say that I blame Disney for wanting to keep the Karens out of their business.
Let’s not forget that Walt and his brother were both alive at the time.................
The name of the EPCOT Center is an acronym, standing for Experimental Prototype Community Of Tomorrow.
The original plan was that there would be an actual City with people living and working there, using experimental new technologies in their daily lives.
But that plan was done away with at some point, and then the Epcot Center evolved into a theme park.
Disney bought off the politicians and effectively had a corrupt deal. I’d like to see the politicians thrown in jail, Disney just did what would benefit themselves.
As good of a guy as Walt was, Epcot was ultimately a poor idea.
Disney wanted a city where he could control everything about how people work and live, without their having any real say in the matter. Not exactly constitutional.
Of course, the feds today are much worse and answerable to no one, unlike Reedy Creek.
Henry Ford tried it decades earlier.
Google ‘Fordlandia’................
This is not surprising.
More regulatory capture.
Seems to now be another type of performance art.
The plan was done away with right after Walt’s death.
EPCOT the city would never have worked. But since the district was already approved Disney took advantage of it. And they brought in so much money that FL just looked the other way. Until Disney Corp stepped in it by attacking DeSantis.
Guaranteed if it weren’t for Cabal, and the Christian side of the family kicked out, Disney would have been the best education for the children of the world to take them into the next era. That doesn’t work if Satan wants our children groomed while the world destroyed. We’d all be quantum by now and in a good way. It could have been the greatest tool in the world for the true gospel and how to live in the Kingdom of God because people actually love and care about each other and work out their issues civilly. I’ve been praying many, many decades for God to turn all that around.
He will...............bet on it...................
Swamp rat with a lot of govt swamp help to achieve its crony capitalism kingdom
This is a confusing saga. I posted an article a few weeks ago claiming the legislation had been repealed. This is a recent article about a vote to do just that.

The Dems are trying to repeal it, but they don’t have the majority to do so..........................
The promise of good wages encouraged many to sign up, but Ford’s curious set of town rules soon created discontent. Workers were forbidden from drinking alcohol, smoking tobacco or even playing football, while women were banned. Inspectors visited houses to ensure the rules were being obeyed.
i can see that as being a problem...
Also, they could not eat their own types of foods that they were used to.
They had to eat ‘American’ foods, which they found to be distasteful, and some could not digest them properly...............
one of his better ideas...
