mr. dalton?>> dalton: the reason it's in bad shape because the two-party system didn't agent on the issue 40 years ago. we can blame the two-party system. those who don't for an independent here, don't complain to me about the two-party system again, democrats or republicans. like they said, it's not a very big problem to fix. congressional budget office says .6% of the gdp. whether or not you call it an entitlement or not, if you say i've earned it, then, believe me, when it comes time for me to collect it, i want it, i earned, okay? entitlement or not, whatever you call it, i want my money when i'm 65. to put it on the backs of the younger people right now doesn't make sense when you can adjust it by 2% over 20 year, and that solves the short fall. for people 55 and older, by the time i'm 65, if i add 2% at least for ten years i put into it in solving the problem. >> moderator: right now, we're going to a reporter who has a question for the candidates from a viewer. >> from the facebook page fr

mr. dalton, answer the question. dalton: briefly.have a manufacturing business, registered here in maine, we sell nationally. we manufacture in china. we have, like, ten reps that sell it nationally. we subcontract to businesses here in the state and also warehouse in kansas. the problem comes back to how do you develop a more small business within maine, and our dear governor lee page had an idea to cut corporate income tax, went to china, met with the chinese manufacturing business organizations over there. we sent $270 million worth of progs to china -- products to china, and a draw back of small businesses in maine that we have a corporate income tax applied to experts making us uncompetitive globally. >> i served as secretary of state, in terms of the private sector, i have not created private sector jobs, and prior to that, well, others were running businesses, i was serving in iraq and afghanistan. in the last four or five years, i have not had the opportunity, but, certainly, i did run small businesses, managing hotels in ban

mr. dalton, go ahead. alton: the tax system is a dysfunctional and we shouldn't have an income tax situation. we need to go to a different tax system, sales tax, fair taxes the way to go to the corporate income tax should be replaced by the sales tax because the income tax is not something these other countries have, and it makes us uncompetitive globally. please take a look at my website. i think a tax system is complete reformation. i'm the only candidate in the race that supports candian obama's proposal to what extent pushed tax cut making about to hundred $50,000. i think we have the effect giving subsidies to oil and gas and corporations who don't need it and we could impose a financial transaction tax and to be responsible for the collapse of our economy. we have to stabilize everybody's paying in a share and the corporations pay more. i agree with warren buffett. >> moderator: we want to get everybody into the it secretary summers? summers: we need to make sure our taxes are low as they can possibly

mr. dalton. >> what america has done with the guilty parties is make them too big to fail. -- with the parties is to make them too big to fail. the two party system is broken and we are putting money ahead of values when it comes to electoral our efficient -- officials. our two parties are controlled by major lobbyist groups. they do not want reform in health care or immigration. the idea that senators no - - senator snow -- senator snowe is walking away because of partisanship. we should hold them accountable. >> i have to wrap you up right there. >> mr. king? >> everywhere i have gone in the maine people say, how come they cannot talk to each other. not only is it aggravating -- there was a study done by the federal reserve bank of france -- of san francisco. it said the bickering in congress is costing us jobs. the estimated unemployment would be 2% lower if it were not for this. as an independent governor, i had to work with both sides. every tuesday morning we had breakfast with republicans and democratic leaders in the voting house in an effort to bring them together to start talking abo

mr. bolten? dalton: i agree a lot with what steve said.he two parties, with the american people have done is they've made the parties to the to fail. when everybody talks about i'm going to vote for the lesser of two weevils cause i think that this kind of ridiculous in my point of view and that's why i got all the signatures myself. i talked to the people that signed my petition to be on the ballot. over 6,000 people. but they all said is betting that little broadcast which was the two-party system is broken and we are putting money ahead of our values when it comes to electing our officials and the otwo pa lobbyist groups and let's get kunkel on getting the commerce to undermine the reform and places like our health care and our immigration reform. and this idea that senator snowe is just walking away because she couldn't handle the bitterness and the politics of the disingenuous because all of these issues that we are talking about on the immigration reform, tax reform, social security, they've all been on the table since. and what shou
