Hey, I gave to a charity. Why don't local politicians give me tax breaks?!?
Honestly, this sort of idea is such an anathema to the idea of fairness, and an indictment of politics.
Be a big enough company, and then you can effectively bribe politicians into giving you money from local tax payers that you can then use to destroy those same local businesses and communities. Genius.
