That's why he moved the companies to Texas from Delaware, because even though Delaware is ridiculously business friendly, they'll actually defend shareholders' rights there.
except deleware also deliver swift justice through the courts when things like these happens, which is why they move to texas.
Well yeah, that makes it business friendly. No corporation likes to be tied up in court for ages. Texas has just been trying to pass Delaware in a race to bottom of which state is the most business friendly (and thus anti-consumer, anti-environment, etc).
They didn't move from Delaware, they moved from California...?
Tesla was incorporated in Delaware and its headquarters were in California. Now it is incorporated and headquartered in Texas.
Texas is clearly a bastion of fair business practices given that information 🍰
Tesla was incorporated in Delaware, like many other US corporations.
