Drop your EGO, U.S.!

I think the U.S. thinks they are "the best" country out there and just has this ego and is too "good" to turn to other countries for help. If they just dropped their attitude and listened to other countries, possibly they might learn a thing or two. I would bring up first, our errors-for instance, our "health care system" that has left a large part of the population bankrupt and now homeless or in major debt. As well as those who are unemployed and uninsured. Then I would compare our country and similar issues with other countries, for instance, Taiwan or Switzerland or even Japan. I would definitely mention that Taiwan did their research while "shopping around" for a good health care system by turning to other countries and they are doing fine now.
Switzerland made it work also by reforming-so I would basically put emphasis on learning from other countries and stop being so egotistical because as of now, we are not getting any better. I would also mention or show some type of flow chart that proves, if we keep up the way we are right now, our whole country could be in a huge problem-affecting not only the poor, but EVERYONE!
