Economist Adam Hoffer joins to discuss new vaping regulations that could clear shelves, and how Wisconsin and Minnesota compare to the rest of the U.S. on gas taxes.

Hoffer, director of excise tax policy at the Tax Foundation, explains a new Department of Revenue rule that would make most vaping devices illegal to sell. But will the $1,000 fine be enough — or even enforced?

We also look at one of the Tax Foundation’s most popular data sets: how much each state charges in gas taxes, with California the highest per-gallon and Alaska the lowest.
