Special deals for adjusted tax rates are most assuredly pure corruption even if they increase the income the city would get (ie, over zero) because they're one-off deals.

It's equivalent to if I said I'd do the personal equivalent of corporate inversion [1] and then got a sweetheart deal from the IRS just because they'd "make more than if I left".
