Wonderful thing, America, you can believe as you wish. Facts, however, are a thing. The US has never experienced hyperinflation. What you are describing about the Nixon/Carter era was Stagflation. This was supposed to be impossible according to Keynes, who erroneously convinced generations of politicians that it was possible for government to spend its way out of recession.
Taxes are not really a factor in inflation as you describe the Great Society. Whether the government raises taxes or not, increasing the money supply is one way to spur inflation. Ultimately, it was Johnson's Great Society that led to the problems during the Nixon era...Nixon just made it worse by ignoring his economists, including Milton Friedman.
One reason the US has not experienced hyperinflation is that the minimum wage is not pegged to inflation. By definition, that would cause an ever expanding upward spiral in inflation. This is not really a debatable fact. It is exacting like an infinite loop in a computer program, if wages rise, then prices rise to pay them, then inflation indexes wages, which increase prices...ad infinitum.
For examples of hyperinflation, see modern day Venezuela, post WWI Germany, or post WWII Hungary.
