It's crony fascism/capitalism.

In Houston the city paid $300million to build a football stadium (also used for concerts, rodeo and other events). The football team owner then sold the naming rights to OUR stadium for $300million to the local power company (that funds it from local electric rates) and got to keep the money.

Rape my wallet, please.
