As in Russia and increasingly Hungary. Its been a feature in some leftist populist regimes as well the authoritarian hard right. Its basically capitalism by licence from the executive. The new right critiqued this form of government in the early 80s claiming it would stifle innovation and creativity in society. Not a controversial observation given overwhelming evidence they were right.That's the modern version of the Corporate State.
