I wouldn't say it's dependent on it, but it's a very good way to control people. The uber-rich are using it very successfully to divide and conquer. By redistributing wealth, there would be much less fear in the world.
Keep in mind by controlled I mean that America can with the stroke of a pen revoke our access to health care systems. I don't know the specifics of a healthcare system's infrastructure provide many examples.

Our banking and healthcare systems are American-controlled.

Banking, sure, but healthcare? As in everything is hosted on US controlled servers?

There's DRM on medical equipment, for starters.

Yes and I thought why the hell is the world letting this happen. And if another country has a succesful product Americans just purchase it.
