Yet other results of Disney’s corporate cronyism and monopoly power have remained hidden - until now. Crooked Kickbacks Perhaps one of the most egregious revelations from the audit was the unethical flow of perks and benefits from Disney to RCID employees. Disney effectively bought the loyalty of the district. According to the report, here’s how it worked: Disney would provide flashy perks to Reedy Creek employees, many of which weren’t available to the general public. These benefits included up to 40 percent off Disney cruises and merchandise, other discounts on resort rooms and services, and millions of dollars worth of Disney park annual passes for not only employees but also their friends and family - plus free, single-use, transferable tickets over the holidays. District employees even received some privileges reserved for Disney workers, known as “cast members,” such as gifts and invites to closed-door parties. Of course, none of these kickbacks were included in workers’ taxable income.

The rule against perpetuities includes (in the UK anyway, and in 1985 anyway) the idea of a life in being which is "en ventre sa mere" i.e., conceived but not yet born. So if Megan was pregnant when Disney did the deed, that baby would be what Legal Eagle calls the "measuring life". Our law lecturer posed the question: what about a frozen egg/sperm combo? Would it, he asked rhetorically, be (wait for it...) "en ventre sa frigidaire"? I know, I'm sorry. But I waited over 30 years for this.
