Its incredible to see some of the ignorant posts that are left either on the Orlando Sentinel website or here. We have the standard anti corporation, anti big business comments from people who dont really even understand how to read a balance statement and just want to gripe about the “big bad corporation”. Then I always see the same politician throwing nonsense against the wall to see ... See all content

Odd, I never had a problem with Universal’s security force. Act like a human being, don’t get drunk and act like a idiot, don’t cut in lines, and act your age and not your IQ, things are fine.

Increase of real estate taxes? Utilities? Where do you get your information? Where are your numbers? You are once again throwing a general statement out there without showing facts. Typical politician nonsense.

Disney has laid off hundreds of employees to offset the increase cost of real estate taxes and utilities. Disney pays $350 million a year in property taxes. We need to lower government spending so more Disney workers do not lose their jobs.

I really hate headlines like this. The Disney Company which includes all its divisions not just the theme parks had their profits rise 18% in this last quarter. Many people like (Your Kidding Me) decry the rise in fees at the theme parks with this 18%. If anyone reads the article you see that the theme park profits are not even close to that number. The writers of the headlines have to remember that ... See all content
