New York State has a program called "Start up New York". This program features a ten year tax break for companies that move to New York. They have spent millions of dollars pushing this program around the country. (I apologize, I do not know exactly how many millions). Last year, the program brought 76 jobs to the state. No, not 76,000, 76!. You cannot make this stuff up.

It was a complete failure.
