Your argument is easily applied to all medical advancements, do you think we should stop using antibiotics? Vaccines? Maybe you should let the individuals determine what's best for themselves instead to trying to prescribe your strange anti capitalism ideology for them.

Treating Americans is definitely a cash-cow for Big Pharma, indeed if a potential new drug can't/won't make it past the FDA then it will likely be killed off regardless of what the rest of the world might want/need/approve.
