Kach, this is why I prefer a consumption based tax instead of an Income tax. Goods produced cheaply overseas will produce the same amount of Tax revenue as good produced in the US, if they are the same price. You will not have "hidden" taxes in the price of products.
And as far as Unions are concerned, they should reshape themselves in labor supply houses. They should sell labor to companies at a specific $/hr rate, and then pay the Union member and provide the health insurance, etc. This way, if a company goes under, it will not destroy the pension funds of the workers. And the pension funds will not be a source of money for companies to raid. It would also equalize the union workers, since they will get paid the same if they work for GM, Ford or whoever,even if the worker changes jobs.
