As a non American this is very interesting knowledge.

I have a question: in USA could Tesla force Tesla Powerwall owners to only buy electricity from Tesla approved suppliers and when they sell their product through Tesla store, Tesla gets a 30% cut?

In theory, if they sold you the product with that restriction out of the box and didn't change it later to do this, so you bought the product knowing with basic research that it would be restricted in this way, yes they could.
