2.25? it s ridiculous now. ridiculous now. where it s least ridiculous, we can show you those. seven states still under $3 a gallon led by oklahoma. $2.89 the average in oklahoma. where is it most expensive in the ten most expensive states are led by california. $4.43 the average gallon of regular. trace, we looked it up. in case you want the cheapest gas you can find anywhere in america, we went to our friends at gasbuddy.com in oklahoma. $2.49. the cheapest you can get it in the u.s. trace? trace: right outside the door in santa monica, california, it s $5.29 a gallon, jeff flock. oh! trace: stay tuned for more. get yourself a golf cart.
trace: thank you. yes. joining me now, steve moore, the former senior economic adviser to president trump and marc thiessen, former speechwriter for george bush, aei scholar and fox news contributor. that s what i said, marc. jeff flock talk about $3.27. it s 5.29 out my door. look at the scenario. if there were gas lines, you d think we re in 1979. no, that s right, this is the second coming of the carter administration. we have run-away inflation, hostages in the middle east and the president begging opec to produce more oil because we have shortages at home of the it s like the 1970s. gases have risen $1 a gallon. crude oil prices have doubled. natural gas prices are up. these are because of policy decisions by the biden administration. when you declare you re going to
increase prices and lower employment. a lot of people say the democrats will pay for it one way or the other. exactly. i look at the economy. you look at the prices are up. we know that. but the gallon of milk, doesn t seem to have the same impact on people. you drove in. gas is $5.29 outside. people see these big numbers, the jumbo numbers on the gas stations every day. there s a visceral reaction. it bums people out to see the prices sky rocketing. it s awful. just awful, trace. when you think about it, what he s doing in this bill is giving lots of people in the lower end of the income lots of money. that i have jobs they don t like. they don t like them particularly. by giving them money, gives them the wherewithal not to go to work, drop out of the labor force, which you ve seen dramatic drops from bill clinton down to today. it s an amazing drop in the labor force participation rate. with no one in the labor force,
it s a requirements that starts in 2029. trace: we talk about crazy things happening in california. it s a weekly thing that we go through here. what is the latest on yard work? yep. coming down to the tools to maintain your yard. it s an environmental provision that california has passed to limit emissions. the state will try to ban the sale of new small gas-powered motor engines. this means lawn mowers, leaf blowers. they have to plug in or be electric. they keep changing the laws and putting more pressure on the power grid. you put the green energy on the grid and you can t use it at night to develop battery power. gas is $5.29 outside the door. it keeps increasing the cost. jeff paul, thanks. thank you, trace. trace: that is the story for monday, october 11th.
