Corruption and perverse incentives are problems that apply to government bureaucracies as well as to companies. Not to say that it can't be done that way successfully, but the failures of the Soviet space program for instance seem to be a clear indication that it isn't a silver bullet in this case. Whatever the underlying economic system there are big organizational challenges to overcome.
