Many companies receive relief from taxes to develop or build facilities. Here in Reno Cabela’s got tax relief to build their store. They would not have built unless they got the relief.

Sing it brother, from the rooftops.

I would eliminate business income tax entirely, because businesses do NOT pay it, the consumer does. It is a hidden tax on thconsumer, labeled as a way to ‘tax business’.

I see many cogent responses to your query. I trust they will aid you but since you could have researched the question as easy as anyone who responded, I want to know why you asked the question.

"I want to know why you asked the question."

Get used to disappointment, because I'm not going to answer that question. : )

You just did.

NY used to take a big chunk of my income.
I left, in part due to taxes.
Now NY gets none of my income.
So much for “development” via high taxes.

Whose “development”? State or private?

Seems pretty obvious that taking away half of someone’s income stifles their own development.
