> they lose the same amount of money in price hikes everywhere due to inflation
This point only makes sense if you assume that the price hikes wouldn't happen without the handouts, and that those people would have been able to stay in a dignified life (food, housing) without that buffer.
Big assumption!
Your point about the rhetoric around prices is exactly right. Pretty obvious, only looking at corporate profits vs price increases.
