Public ownership of teams is an issue I don't see gaining much traction.

Although great conceptually, there are a ton of issues with publically owned teams. If there is too much public say, bad decisions result. Governments are also forced to make more team based decisions, which leads to wasteful spending.

See many european soccer clubs/teams for examples.
