Coming to the US for special treatment does not mean that the US has a better system. All it shows is that there may be a doctor, team, or hospital here that is better at something than can be found somewhere else. The US does not have a monopoly on all the best doctors and medical technology on this planet. However, in many areas, we do. But it's a fallacy to generalize from specifics. Not to mention being impolitic and rude (arrogant) to the folks living somewhere other than the US.
