High poverty, low income state. Average citizen is still asleep, or too busy trying to survive to pay attention. Playground for shady oil and gas companies that produce like crazy, then go bankrupt right before they have to plug all their inactive wells, leaving the state with the bill. All legal, bought and paid for. Oklahoma has its own flavor of RINO. Maybe just crooked business people who pay off the legislature. Whatever you call it, We've been sold out repeatedly.
