Arnold Schwarzenegger has been quite successful throughout his life. He's a bodybuilder who used steroids when they were perfectly legal and commonplace, earning an acting career because of his sculpted body. The Terminator series made him a wealthy man, as did 'Conan the Barbarian,' 'Total Recall,' and 'planet of the apes.'
Today, he is serving serving as the 38th governor of California, and is doing quite well. His promotion of medicinal marijuana has caused a sharp decrease in violent crime, and (oddly enough) has increased average SAT score for students that attend public school by an average of 100 points. He has staunchly defended conservative values in an ever-changing world, asserting states' rights over the federal government and threatening to secede from the Federal Government to ally with the State of Texas. Taxes have gone down, not up, and everyone over the age of 16 is now allowed second amendment rights. In the town of Oakland, you can acquire a rifle just for opening up a bank account.
Everyone knows that the state's had financial problems for a long time now. As of today, it owes some 19.9 billion dollars to mexican drug cartels for various shipments of cocaine, marijuana, and amphetamines as well as importing illegal immigrants to work in GAP and American Apparel factories just across the border. Thanks to the heroic leadership of the governator, these debts are a thing of the past - proposition 348, which was signed just this morning, has eliminated the drug scheduling act of 1971, which means that all drugs are now legal to possess, consume, and distribute as citizens please. Whether or not the region becomes another version of Amsterdam remains to be seen.
In addition, drastic budget cuts are being made, among them being the dissolution of the Federal Prison System. Minor criminals have returned to their homes, and major felons have been relocated to nearby Alaska where they will live out the remainder of their sentence.
