chart of inflation rate

The graph seems to show that inflation really started rising at the beginning of 2021. What on earth could have caused that? /sarc
Totally correct. Given the debt rising from 2000 to 2022 from one to thirty trillion dollars, the Ponzi scheme will shortly require some resolution not to our liking.
That Pelosi basically said in the last days that debt pays itself off (through inflation, though she didn't mention that part), the House's continuing appropriation of money we don't have and the Senate's idiotic rubber stamp assures that this has been a Ponzi scheme of a couple of decades' length.
