Communism and decline of labor unions

Even if you think very little of 20th century communism, as I do, the threat of the workers opting for Communism made the 1% tolerate or even encourage unions.
Communism became less and less attractive to western worker in the 1970s.  The 1% no longer feared communism's attraction to their workers. They started a successful war on the unions.  It succeeded, workers are much worst off then they were 40 years ago.
