You have to understand that Boston University is not a real school. Even the article says “ She readily recognises the shortcomings of her modelling. The numbers are not recorded deaths, but rather predictions. “They’re modelled numbers and I recognise the limitations that that comes with,” she said. “We don’t have routine data sets that we can measure someone as ‘killed by the US lack of funding’.”. Doge Cuts are necessary so the USA doesnt default on it’s debt

This is more or less delusional.
The US won't default on any debt (worst case, money printer go brrrr).
The cuts so far amount to fuckall, even across many years.
And then the proposed budgets increases deficits far beyond any savings Doge actually managed to find (if their cuts were even actually more effective than the inspectors general that were terminated).

USA already are doing that, and have been for a long time, so "worst case" is already here. What do you think happens when things gets even worse than now?
