airline tickets

2.  impose emissions

standards for cars

3. enforce antimonopoly

laws

4. pass worker health

and safety laws

Explanation:

To increase national security, the government levies a fee on airline tickets. This increases ticket prices for consumers.

To ensure clean air, the government establishes emissions standards for cars. This policy is costly for companies to implement, and most companies pass this cost to consumers in the form of higher car prices.

To lower prices and provide more product options for consumers, the government enforces antimonopoly laws. These laws can potentially limit innovation by not allowing firms to make as much profit as possible.

To protect workers from harmful situations, the government passes worker health and safety laws. These laws limit how companies can use their resources. The costs to provide protective materials for employees can be passed on to consumers.
