The Isolated Health Care System

I think one of the shortcomings of the United States is they aren't willing to learn from abroad because they want to be the world leader. The problem with this reasoning is by learning from others gains you more power and respect. I would try to be sensitive to this way of thinking when discussing health care systems abroad. I would talk about Taiwan and how they investigated what worked the best worldwide to design their health care system. I would also discuss Germany because they are a "Western" developed country with a private influence in their health care system so that United States can relate. Those would be the two countries from abroad I'd discuss to influence and reach the United States and its "superpower" way of thinking. The United States needs to be open to abroad ideas and not set on remaining isolated with its health care system.
