Not to dispute anything you are saying, this seems to be a preferred tool n some authoritarian countries. The downside is that it places a huge drain on economic activity, since one has to "keep up a good relation" with the government officials at all times. Needless to say, policy more in line with democratic ideals should be more efficient in the long run.
