6. unless you own thousands of shares of Disney then their small uptick didn't earn you more
than a large coffee. Do you own thousands of shares of Disney stock?

7. I don't own anything in Disney. But if I did, I would have no problem dumping that shit.
Disney hasn't exactly always treated its shareholders with much respect anyway.

10. If you bought in 1985 and sold in 2000
you did very, very well indeed.

9. I've worked for Disney for nearly 20 years. They've treated me well
they are also one of the few major corporations to give health coverage to same sex partners. They're Progressive on some issues, not so in others. The top tiers of management are mixed; some repugs, some Dems. When I worked on the Studio side of things Jeffery Katzenburg was one of my bosses, and he was the single largest donor to the Gore campaign. In my opinion they aren't he best, but they are also far from the worst out there.
