Original Note:
It's true that in September inflation rose TO 8.2% over last year, but it did not rise BY 8.2%: that would imply a much bigger increase compared to August than actually occured. Both month to month and year over year figures are important but they're not interchangeable. https://www.washingtonpost.com/business/2022/10/13/fed-inflation-september-cpi/
