During the pandemic we saw billionaires get richer and nothing being done for essential workers,” Disney told Yahoo Entertainment. “We did not match our language with action.”
Americans see Disneyland as this treasure and the people who work there are really important to them,” she added. “It makes people miserable to think that Cinderella is sleeping in her car! And that’s an important feeling to pay attention to, because it’s your conscience speaking.”
In her new documentary, The American Dream and Other Fairy Tales, Disney reportedly criticizes executive pay and calls for higher taxes on corporations, and profiles Disneyland employees who are having financial trouble while the theme park experiences profits.
Self -described Disney World “enthusiasts,” however, believe the resort is losing its magic as soaring prices deter families from visiting the self-dubbed “happiest place on earth,” according to a recent study.
Prices have skyrocketed, Disney no longer distinguishes between “ladies and gentlemen,” or “boys and girls” anymore, guests on the “It’s a small world” floating boat ride were stranded for over an hour this past summer — with one rider calling the experience was “torture” — and the company has gone full groomer, with its CEO Bob Chapek caving to the woke LGBTQIA2S+ mob.

‘Cinderella Is Sleeping in Her Car’
Let me know when Abigail is sleeping in her car.
The answer is simple. Boycott the company. Clearly most Americans are both stupid enough to pay ridiculous admission fees and continue to buy Disney products. That is a judgement on what sort of ‘goood’ people populate our country, not on a company that is making money.
“In her new documentary, The American Dream and Other Fairy Tales”
Wonder where the money that’s made from this documentary is going
What’s it cost for a family of 4 to spend a weekend at Disneyland’s amusement park? I heard over a $1000 per day...
Don’t boycott them, just drop them from your life, for good.
Yes
Good question.
“It’s a small world” floating boat ride were stranded for over an hour this past summer.”
Happened to me when I was 11. I hate that song to this very day.

Galloway points out that many workers must live in overcrowded apartments, in motels or far away.
Pedro Hernandez, 44, works as an on-call banquet waiter for Disneyland Hotel and other resort venues. He has trouble making the $950 monthly rent for the one-bedroom apartment in Anaheim that he shares with his wife, stepdaughter and occasionally his daughter. Bills sometimes go on credit cards. He signed up for affordable-housing benefits, but the waiting list was so long that he stopped checking.
Another is Antonio Castillo, 48, who earns $11.27 an hour after 15 years of working at the Disneyland Hotel. He pays $900 for his one-bedroom Anaheim apartment with his wife and 20-year-old son, but they are hoping to move in with his daughter’s family and share a four-bedroom house.
“Disney creates jobs for the people, but the jobs they produce pay very little,” Castillo said.
I read a book about all the hotels on route191…
Disney workers live there
Disney hires part time help…but they never know how many hours a week they will work….or what days….so they cannot get a second job..
Tickets would be over $400 a day for low cost days. Peak day prices will be higher. There is a range of lodging available, and factor in the meal plans. Stay in one of the lower end accomodations, go on an off time, and you should be able to keep it under $1000 (stay away from the alcohol). Stay in a higher end resort at a peak time, and I don’t think $1,000 a day will come close to getting the job done.
Maybe I should clarify. I wasn’t raised far from the happiest place on earth in Anaheim. Watched it go from a respectable affordable place to something that glorifies deviates, watched when all the staff at all those hotels surrounding Disneyland were replaced by illegal aliens up and down Harbor Blvd and all directions.
My last 25 years in S. CA we never went. No interest in that company or the crowd they attract. I wouldn’t go there today if I were offered a fully stocked complimentary limo for transportation. ☺
Half the people fly in. I’d guess that would average out to about $4000.00+ for flyers for a weekend at an amusement park for a family of 4.
Whoop, make that about 5k or 6k for that flying scenario.
Disney profits are skyrocketing while families are trying to decide whether to buy a couple gallons of gas or a half of a pound of very thinly sliced baloney.
I was in the boat behind you....arggggh
