I don't disagree about defense spending needing to be cut, but good luck getting a candidate elected who runs on that platform: too many people work either for the dod or some subcontracting firm.
As far as the other things, higher corporate tax rates just mean businesses relocate elsewhere, and a lot of what makes outsourcing so profitable is that unions here priced themselves out of a lot of international labor markets. How many American sailors these days? How many shipping companies incorporated in the usa?

Yeah, no. Not every state has unions, yet for some reason companies in states even without them still outsource every chance they get.
Unions are not the cause you are looking for. It's just a buzzword. You probably have too much Glenn Beck or Rush Limbaugh in your life.
