Petropawns in mostly red states have banned the sale of Tesla cars because of the corrupt petropawn legislatures' of these states, while 20 states allow the sale and there is litigation in Arizona.
For over 100 years, the oil and auto industries have conspired to destroy train systems and electric cars. Patents for electric car engines were secretly bought up and destroyed. The federal government was a coconspirator in requiring the destruction of electric cars in the mid 90's, under the fraudlent argument that state standards cannot be higher than the national government's, thus condemning the populace to the lowest common denominator. (The same corrupt standard has been used by the Republicans of the Ohio Supreme Court to quash city antifracking legislation).
What do these people have in common? They all own a Tesla.
