Maybe I'm not good at explaining what the graph is supposed to represent.
$1 in 1989 is worth $2.19 in 2021
whereas, $1 in 1989 is worth $2.40 in 2022
That's a 21¢ increase over the previous year.

The graph shows the change in cents, not as a percentage. That's 20¢ not 20%. Inflation is almost always shows as a percentage, but I thought it would be more meaningful to the average person to display the data as the change in a more tangible medium.
