"The government" has the right to demand to see how much something that the taxpayer are paying for costs. But "the government" only exercises that right if Congress has passed a law actually demanding to see that information.

So again, they're going to argue in court that the entire free market system requires a law ordering somebody to disclose a price for every good and/or service exchanged in this country. Again, good luck with that.
