New York State offers to waive all state income taxes for something like 10 years if you move there and start a new business in one of their special economic zones. There are more of these programs out there than people realize.

That's a good counter-example, but still pretty far from 'accept any net-positive benefit' (however close to zero).

Moreover, there only seem to be three such zones in the entire state: parts of upper Manhattan, parts of the south of the Bronx, and some parts of Yonkers.
