Senator Warner says the $1.9 trillion stimulus legislation under the Birdbrain (Biden) administration was too much.
Combine that $1.9 trillion in giveaways (as well as any student loan forgiveness) with Biden's energy policies (see a few example links below) effects, and that is why we had a major jump in inflation by July 2021.

Warner said a bipartisan budget deal including long-term spending and revenue changes to bring down the deficit would be good policy, citing rising federal interest payments as a reason to act.
“Is there an appetite? I hope so. Is there any movement on that at all? No,” Warner said. “Neither party has any credibility on this issue.”
Nothing stopping Warner from introducing a spending cap.

We need a Constitutional spending cap for the federal government. I say 1% of GDP, no more.
The federal government currently spend about 15% of GDP to fuck things up.

CPI or inflation increased at a fast pace after March 2021. September 2022's CPI was 8.2% and has dropped slowly since June 2022.
What do you all expect October 2022's CPI to be ? I estimate it will be between 6 and 8%.
I estimate the Fed may not raise the Fed Funds rate from 3.25% to 4% next month if it is below 5%.

The Fed is virtually guaranteed to raise the Fed Funds rate from 3.25% to 4% this month.
If October inflation is
more than 8% then the Fed will raise it to 4.75% in December
between 6% and 8% then the Fed will raise it to 4.25%
if below 6% then they will not raise it

We went to a locally owned diner for brunch on Wednesday. First time there since before the COVID closures.
That place has been an institution in the neighborhood.
Oh my freaking gosh. The prices are so high now. There's no way they can survive charging those prices, and probably no way they can survive if they reduce the prices.
They're doomed.

Don't worry the government will send out some more "Inflation Relief Checks" to the poor to solve the problem.

Biden is fighting inflation. Remember those millions of dollars worth of crack pipes he gave away for free?

Gas prices should not increase as United States oil rig count has reached early 2020 levels. World rig count is below early 2020 levels by about 10%.

How Corporations “Get Away With Murder” to Inflate Prices on Rent, Food, and Electricity
Antitrust expert Hal Singer shows how big businesses in certain industries are taking advantage of inflation worries to jack up prices far beyond their cost increases, all the while raking in robber-baron profits.

Frankly, I prefer my spaceship to have big tits and not fake inflated ones.
EDIT - numbers drop:
America goes back to the 80s: Surging gas prices and higher rents push inflation to 41-year high of 8.5% as White House blames it on Putin invading Ukraine
The consumer price index rose 8.5% in March from a year ago, the fastest increase since December 1981
Housing costs, which make up about a third of the index, have escalated and show no signs of cooling
Gasoline prices soared 49% in March from a year ago as the war in Ukraine rocked energy markets
Biden's administration tried to get ahead of the dire inflation news by blaming Russian leader Vladimir Putin
But Republicans place the blame for soaring prices on 'Democrats' reckless spending and failed policies'
