But I'm pretty suspicious of my methodology. This trend towards an increase in results is visible in all the charts except the "national debt" one, but I wonder if Google doesn't do something to curtail results after they reach the some multiple of millions.
Also for the 2026 year I'm taking the number of results produced in the first third of the year extrapolating for a full year.
For instance, here is the result for the search term "noodles"
| year | term | results |
| 2016 | "noodles" | 24k |
| 2017 | "noodles" | 26k |
| 2018 | "noodles" | 34k |
| 2019 | "noodles" | 39k |
| 2020 | "noodles" | 39k |
| 2021 | "noodles" | 44k |
| 2022 | "noodles" | 55k |
| 2023 | "noodles" | 69k |
| 2024 | "noodles" | 92k |
| 2025 | "noodles" | 113k |
| 2026 | "noodles" | 243k* |

I'm the furthest thing from a statician but that looks like a nice control, and confirms my bias, parabolic uptick in 2022
Slop from 24 onward definitely poisons anything onward

2/3 of your tables uptick in 2022 when inflation was extra hot. I bet theres correlation to awareness with perceived inflation. A good table to add would be "money printing" or "debasement"
The DOGE op last year made sure to press on the talking point that government spending is what causes inflation. But that was also a segue to the fraud headlines this year, not all government spending has the same inflationary effect... government spending can be deflationary but the principal-agent problem effectively ensures that's never the case.
