At the moment most of the pressure is preschool/kindergarten privatization and on the other hand private donations cover more and more higher education like university. At least in Finland.

When private money is involved that basically means deregulation in some way or the other. Private companies want to decide how they use their money and there's less democratic oversight.

So wait, private businesses just make donations to universities so they can offer scholarships? Is it tax exempt or what, I've never heard of such a system.
