I've lived in Germany and I can say I very much prefer America over Europe. As you pointed out though we are headed in their direction, especially if we implement national healthcare. It is getting worse but it's still miles ahead.
You have a point about some of those wilder countries. They don't have the government infrastructure to breath down your neck but if they got ahold of you then most likely it's a free for all.

I've lived in Germany as well. Really liked. I wouldn't move back though and my wife doesn't want to either even though she is German. Lived in France and while that was interesting, I don't see that being a good option either.
The country I most enjoyed living in outside the US was South Africa. It was still wild enough to appeal to certain aspects of my personality.
I currently live in Scotland. I quite like it. I keep meaning to move to Australia but it is quite pleasant here.
