RE: Lets look at the state of New York. Now the state of New York are touting their plan to lure businesses back into the state. NO STATE TAXES FOR THE FIRST 10 YEARS
Only if you establish your business in certain areas of New York - mostly the economically suffering UPSTATE.
Plan isn’t working though.
See here:

New York’s expensive startup initiative only created 76 jobs. Start-Up New York promised 2,000 jobs, but only delivered 76.
That was after the state spent $28 Million in a National Ad campaign.
But I'll bet their friends and relatives who own those ad companies are smiling.
It could be that most of the businessmen and women don’t trust the New York government. You know the old saying; “WHAT THE GOVERNMENT CAN GIVE, THEY CAN ALSO TAKE AWAY”.
