Disney can't afford to keep paying their employees?

That money is all going into shoring up public retirement plans and such.

That these liberals negotiated and underfunded. for decades.

The only important question is have all H1B and other visa workers been terminated and now leaving the country? Or, as might be Disney’s norm, did they keep cheap foreign labor and simply dump their American employees?

Seems only government employees are still working and or still being paid. No wonder they don’t mind this destructive shutdown.

Well if they are not working then they shouldn’t be getting paid for doing nothing. I am surprised it took Disney this long.

I also work with Universal Studios. Unlike Disneys Gay Days, Uni doesnt have one..yet. I would rather pay for Knotts Berry Farm. Believe it or not, a non-active Freeper is one of the chief engineers of the Universal theme rides.

I think the Left is going for the kill. They don’t care about their own. Better to strike down the king because if you fail then the king gets you.

This is a means to an end.

Trump needs to come out on top otherwise this nation will be in the dustbin of history.

Unfortunately we all have to live through this. I still have many years to go in life unlike those who are near the end of theirs.

There is a science to beat AIDS, it’s called realizing that if you have very few sex partners, that the likelihood of contracting HIV is way lower.

Right now Disney is best described as either “Fast Food Entertainment”.

Have they ever closed down the NYC Subway? They can get as angry as they want about people not totally locking themselves up in their houses when they have a double standard for supermarkets and transportation.
