Today's YouTube Lets Plays question comes from Reddit:

Americans of all states: What do you think about your state's governor? from AskAnAmerican

While my original answer to this question appeared on the Reddit thread linked above, my answer here is longer and has more detail then the one posted on Reddit forums.

Paul LePage: 
What do you think about your state's governor?
My Answer:

Ten Things You'll Find In Maine:

1: It's White Power Governor Paul LePage who is currently trying legalize slavery, stating that blacks are monkeys not humans and don't deserve to be anything other then the beasts of burdens they are AND who is trying to succeed the union and make Maine it's own sovereign nation, so that he can legalize slavery without having to deal with the federal government. (Is THAT REALLY the way life should be? Most of us Mainer's think he is nuts. We also don't know how he got to be governor when 61% voted AGAINST him; thus why the majority of Mainers have bumper stickers on their cars which say: "I'm part of the 61%" )

2: Illegal stills and moonshiners on every corner. Usually on front lawns in plain sight.

3: Nation's largest producer of Opium and Heroine, with drug dealers in such prevalence that the police turn a blind eye to the bulk of the "small timers" to focus only on the most violent ones.

Side note: The town of Old Orchard Beach being the state of Maine's top producer of both.

4: The Lobster Wars: Lobstermen shooting each other, while cutting lines, smashing traps, and stealing Maine's #1 commodity from each other's hauls.

5: The largest group of active Neo-Nazi's in the country. While Neo Nazis always been here in Maine, they've become more active the past 4 years as a result of White Power Governor Paul LePage's pro Nazi sympathies.

6: The largest group of active Ku Klux Klan in the country. While the Klan has always been here in Maine, they've become more active the past 4 years as a result of White Power Governor Paul LePage's pro Klan sympathies.

7: The largest homeless population in comparison to overall population of the state, of any state in the country. A state with 2 million residents, 300,000 of which are homeless living in tents and cardboard boxes in city parks, alongside train stations, and under bridges... and what counts as NOT homeless in Maine is seen as homeless outside of Maine, with close to 900,000 residents living in RVs parked in the forest. Homelessness rate in Maine has more then doubled since Governor Paul LePage's removal of government Health Care programs, including Obama Care, which is not available in Maine.

8: Minimum wage is $5.13 an hour. 4th Lowest in America. (Yes, there are 3 startes where minimum wage is UNDER $5 an hour). Residents have voted to increase minimum wage every election. Governor Paul LePage over tunes vote of the people every time. November 2016 election was record breaking in it was the first minimum wage increase vote to not be vetoed. In 2018 minimum wage will be raised to $9, if it doesn't get vetoed again first.

9: Going down your driveway to get your mail, is decided based off if you think you can out run the bullets while feuders on either side of your driveway shoot at each other... providing of course your mail man was first able to get past the shooters himself to put your mail in your mail box. This is a problem that used to be rare but has become wide spread due to the recent influx of Neo Nazis and Loyalist White Knights of the Ku Klux Klan, since Maine Governor Paul LePage's many white power speeches and statements.

10: Has towns that have passed ordinances making it illegal to own property if you are LGBTQ. Old Orchard Beach being one of them from January 6, 2016 until it was thrown out of Superior Court October 18, 2016. (Notice that it was passed by a judge at Biddeford District Court. Biddeford being a town as equally gay hating as Old Orchard Beach is.)

Bonus Thing: When you go to Biddeford WalMart to shop for your trusty red flannel shirt, you can also buy your trusty automatic rifle from WalMart's massive selection of guns of all shapes and sizes, all of which are for sale over the counter without any need for background checks or permits.

You'll also note while there a large portion of the shoppers carrying rifles on their backs while doing their daily grocery shopping.

Additional Bonus Thing: Maine boasts towns like Biddeford, Lewiston, Damrascotia, and Auburn - all proudly vying for #1 spot as the town in America with the most incest, a record currently held by Biddeford, a town with 26,000 residents, 75% of them related to each other by siblings marrying siblings, fathers marrying daughters, mothers marrying sons, and uncles with harems of nieces.

Welcome to Maine.
