There are plenty of counter-examples proving that to be untrue (eg the CSIRO WiFi patents)

The US made the problem worse by the pro-patent policy from 1980's. I also think the US companies have an unfair advantage in trials (eg. optical fiber Corning vs Sumitomo) I am hoping Apple, the crown jewel, getting badly beat with patents will make US reconsider their pro-patent policy.
