They can't? Cost of goods is going to increase regardless of any government policy. Once again it just comes down to basic economics and to a more massively simplified degree supply and demand.
So the complaint is that they're giving us back money they took from us. Where else would that money come from if not from us?
You got it right. Gas prices are just the leading precursor to all prices because it affects so many swaths of the pricing in everyday life. The earlier we recognize and accept this, the better you can adjust and adapt to the changes. Cold hard truth is government isn't going to be able to do jack-all to prevent prices from going up, and blaming party A or party B is doing yourself a disservice by trying to lay blame to any certain individual or organization. Best case government scenario in a supply constrained scenario like this, is that the people in power aren't abusing power and being corrupt as fuck to line their own pockets ( plenty of examples around the world where this happens on a daily basis, and crisises only exacerbate the rate of pilfering )
There is nothing they can effectively do short of inventing a time machine and preventing certain things from occuring. Such is the global intertwined economy. Pepper your anuses everyone.
