With medical taking twenty cents of every dollar in the US for medical that is not even close to top quality, will the Chinese with fast advancing medical robots of all types enable them to take the economic lead in the future? This is a market of staggering size from automated surgery and dental to 24/7 health monitoring of critical conditions at a far lower cost than the US help them take an economic lead in the future. This could become a major export market for the Chinese economy of literally staggering size enabling other countries to use larger portion resources in other areas. To stay competitive, the US must stop the growing drain of high cost, moderate quality at best medical. This area could become a major driver for the semi sector in almost all areas for the US if we so choose.
