Abandon By Disney (Part 1)
((This Base on the original story From 'www.slimebeast.com' , no I don't own this,but please enjoy reading))

Some
of you may have heard that the Disney corporation is responsible for at least
one real, "live" Ghost Town. Disney built the "Treasure Island"
resort in Baker's Bay in the Bahamas. It didn't START as a ghost town! Disney's
cruise ships would actually stop at the resort and leave tourists there to
relax in luxury.
This is a FACT. Look it up.
Disney blew $30,000,000 on the place... yes,
Thirty Million Dollars.
Then they abandoned it.
Disney blamed the shallow waters (too shallow
for their ships to safely operate) and there was even blame cast on the workers,
saying that since they were from the Bahamas, they were too lazy to work a
regular schedule.
That's where the factual nature of their story
ends. It wasn't because of sand, and it obviously wasn't because
"foreigners are lazy". Both are convenient excuses.
No, I sincerely doubt those reasons were
legitimate. Why don't I buy the official story?
Because of Mowgli's Palace.
Near the beach side city of Emerald Isle in North
Carolina, Disney began construction of "Mowgli's Palace" in the late
1990s. The concept was a Jungle-themed resort with a large, you guessed it,
PALACE in the center of the whole thing.
If you're unfamiliar with the character of
Mowgli, then you might better remember the story "The Jungle Book".
If you haven't seen it anywhere else, you'd know it as the Disney cartoon from
decades past.
Mowgli is an abandoned child, in the jungle,
essentially raised by animals and simultaneously threatened/pursued by other
animals.
Mowgli's Palace was a controversial undertaking
from the start. Disney bought up a ton of high-priced land for the project, and
there was actually a scandal surrounding some of the purchases.
The local
Government claimed "eminent domain" on people's homes, then turned
around and sold the properties to Disney.
