The US spends an enormous amount on healthcare, we just get less for every dollar...

You could have your Pax Americana, equivalent healthcare, and more money in your pocket!

A first class surgeon earns in Spain around lets say 3000-5000 Euro/month (minus taxes).

The same first class surgeon in USA doing exactly the same job would earn... dunno, 25000 dollars? Probably more.
