Post Reagan era politics did a pretty good job at obliterating unions, AND, burying the history of the first half of the 20th century, eh? The problem as I see it with either a communist welfare state or feudalism is that either extreme provides little incentive for most people to be creative/inventive, as there is little to gain for them. Alas, we seem to be swinging toward a kind of corporate feudalism, at least in the US.
