You had the Industrial Revolution and Gilded age of the 19th century.
If you want to talk about the modern era and pure government policy you have the wave of deregulation of the 70s and 80s that led to various government agencies around the world becoming private corporations, you have today T and DHL which were once the West German state Mail and Telecom companies, I pay my gas bill to National Grid, which was once Britain's Public Gas company. At the end of the 80s you had the fall of the USSR and that was a full government of state enterprises becoming a full government of mostly private enterprises that they sold off.
In China you had a lighter version of that that went on in the 90s.
You people think the government in 2020 did more than any of those things in taking power and giving it to corporations?
