Inflation doesn't affect most of those graphics that much. Almost all of them are year-on-year comparisons, you wouldn't see a huge difference due to inflation on those because the inflation effect doesn't accumulate if you're always comparing to the previous year only.

 

No inflation still does change it hugely. A 1B difference between 1945 and 1946 is more than a 10B difference between 2005 and 2006.
