Disneyland Raises Prices During Recession

$94.00 a day Park Hopper to visit the "Happiest Place on Earth"! Walt would be giving tickets away to jobless families if he were around today...
Basic math: if 30,000 people pay that price on any given day, that's over 2 million dollars in gate revenue a day, plus food and a 40.00 sweatshirt etc. etc. etc....

So Disney sends Miley Cyrus to her room due to a classy yet titillating Vanity Fair photo shoot, but doesn't seem to have an issue with their own pedophile inspired billboards...interesting double standard over at the house of mouse...

A Walt Disney revisionist History Lesson

It’s certainly true that Benjamin Franklin at least proposed a kite experiment. Less certain, however, is whether or not he ever actually got around to performing it, and some sources suggest he did not. What is certain is that the experiment had nothing to do with lightning. If someone flew a kite into a storm, and it was struck by lightning, there’s a good chance that person would be utterly destroyed. In fact, everyone in the vicinity would at the least suffer from hairless-scalp syndrome.
Many people today who believe the amended story of Franklin’s kite experiment grew up immersed in the revisionist history of Walt Disney, whose classic cartoon Ben and Me portrayed Franklin not only as having flown the kite in a thunderstorm, but also having been a complete jerk.
While few people still believe that all of Franklin’s innovations are actually attributable to his pet mouse, the kite story is still widely accepted despite the unfortunate testimonies of anyone who’s ever been stupid enough to replicate it.
The reality of Franklin’s experiment is that it simply involved flying a kite into some clouds to collect a few harmless ions, in order to prove that the atmosphere carries a charge. It is through Franklin’s discoveries that science was able to infer, later on, that lightning probably has something to do with electricity.
The idea that his kite was actually directly struck by a bolt of lightning is a rather dramatic exaggeration perpetuated by some school textbooks, which also helpfully serves to convince generations of children that getting hit by lightning is not only totally harmless, but scientific fun!
