Yes and no,

The Spanish government give them ridiculous tax breaks compared to other clubs in La Liga. All the training ground stuff has been said here before I think. Rumour has it that they are "supported" in more ways than one in Spain but anyone who has ever tried to publicly speak about it has been "silenced". It's all a bit dodgy in La Liga.
