This already happens: if you're a corporation promising to create jobs, you can negotiate with government for tax breaks. I believe Twitter negotiated with San Francisco city government to get their payroll tax breaks by threatening to leave the city. Datacenter construction tends to get property tax breaks from local government. If you're talking about locating a car factory in a country, much bigger incentives are to be had.
