6. Why doesn't Disney build low-cost apartments for their employees?

That would be a way to keep workers from quitting their jobs. Keep them loyal and happy to work there. It wouldn't even cost that much compared to paying workers what they're REALLY worth in salaries and benefits. I'll bet Uncle Sam would even give Disney a big tax break if they built apartments and provided jobs for those desperate people.
