The US decided to get rid of all manufacturing that employed lots of people, so politically they would destroy the power of unions. Unlike other countries, American politicians have no shame about it.

Also US companies were just cutting costs- de-powering unions was a happy bonus. Technology allowed it (transportation, communications and cheap energy). But also the government allowed it, because it's all controlled by corporations.
