Forgive me if I defer to the bond market and treasury auction data. The data shows a path to a potential debt spiral and crisis based on yields demanded and debt outstanding. Current annual debt servicing expense is already ~$1T/year.

TIPS are Treasuries. The breakeven-inflation rate is calculated entirely from Treasuries.

Sure. The data also–unambiguously–show that Treasury prices are not pricing in a U.S. default or runaway inflation.
