Canada has a population that is 11.1% of the U.S. population but Canada has only about 1% as many robots. Or put another way, Canada has 1 surgical robot for every 97 robots in the U.S.
California’s population is 37,691,912, which is about 3 million more than the population of Canada, but California, with 114 robots, has seven times as many robots as Canada.
Price of the surgical robot: $1.0-2.3 million
Cost of instruments and accessories per procedure: $1300-2200
Annual service agreement: $100,000-170,000 per year.
As the saying goes, “You do the math.”

Unfortunately you can´t use the MIM-104 Patriot anti-Robot system on the attacking Robots, especially as they are launched from a domestic base in California itself! Although I am not American myself, I can just say - reading these statistics - "God save America"!Once the Robots have enslaved your whole nation (God forbid!), you might consider re-opening the "Underground Railroad" to Canada again ?
