The growth rate is actually pretty impressive!

you're looking at this

It took eight years to go from 1% to 2% (by April 2021), then just 2.2 years to reach 3% (June 2023), and a mere 0.7 years to hit 4% (February 2024). Now, here we are, at over 5% in the USA

and yea, it's a good sign. but it actually took thirty-one years to get here.
