From my understanding Disney had “sovereign” land. Who knows why but because of this they don’t receive any government services (police, fire, ems etc) because desantis took this away, now the government will provide these services. Saving Disney a ton of $$.
I don’t trust desantis.
Edit: that’s just my understanding of the situation. Any of this right?

No.
They had massive tax remittances due to their tax exemption status. Losing that alone will cost them a ton (probably billions). And in any case, Disney will have to continue providing it's own personnel and security staff in most situations. It's a lot more than just losing self-governing status as a municipality.
Thanks for the explanation.
