The easiest country is canada. They have 34 million people, harmony in its population,low unemployment rate, developed cities, excellent mass transit systems, universal healthcare, Political stability (queen Eli 2), walkable cities, citizens can't bear arms (peaceful society), and the highest minimum wage of the American continent.
You can work there with a NAFTA visa if you are a US national or Mexican.

you cant bear arms?
is it more like england where the criminals have more rights than the victims? mass transit? you mean your mass transit actually makes a profit without goverment subsidies?
universal health care? you mean kanada actually likes having its citizens come down to the USA for health care?
sorry, dont think kanada is a good choice for americans, should just stay in the USA and have some rights instead of having goverment tell you what your privelages are.

When the USA goes to **** i'd rather not be here honestly. There are those who think it is honorable to go down with the ship, I say its stupid. Thats why I was asking my question. Oh and may I add Canadian schools (even the top ones) are incredibly affordable (for international students) compared to almost all of the out-of-state tuition prices here in America.

A NAFTA visa? I didn't realize Americans could work in Canada...that easily. Is that an easy visa to obtain, or a difficult one? I've heard most non-Canadians though are working way less than desireable jobs there, even if incredibly qualified.
I like Canadian politics...but never really liked the people. Way too anti-american in my experience, and way too nationalistic. But I do like some of the cities, etc.
Sadly, it is interesting how many people from all over the world emigrate to America...but very few if any countries allow this reciprocally.
U.S.Nationals/Mexicans can renew the NAFTA visa every 3 years (indefinitely).
Once you have been legally working in Canada for 2/3 years, you can apply for a permanent residency card.
Under Chapter 16 of NAFTA, citizens of Canada, the United States and Mexico can gain quicker, easier temporary entry into the three countries to conduct business or investment activities.
Business people covered by NAFTA do not need a labour market opinion from Human Resources and Social Development Canada (HRSDC). This means that Canadian employers do not need to have a job offer approved by HRSDC to employ a United States or a Mexican business person, as set out in NAFTA.
Business people covered by NAFTA must, however, comply with the general provisions on temporary entry to Canada.
NAFTA applies to four specific categories of business people: business visitors, professionals, intra-company transferees, and traders and investors.
Business visitor is a separate category with separate requirements. Business visitors do not require a work permit. For more information, see Jobs that do not require a work permit in the Related Links section at the bottom of this page.
A professional must:
be qualified to work in one of the more than 60*professions listed in Appendix*1603.D.1 of Chapter*16 of NAFTA (for example, accountant, computer systems analyst, engineer, management consultant and technical publications writer) and have pre-arranged employment with a Canadian enterprise in an occupation that matches the qualification.
An intra-company transferee must:
have worked continuously for at least one year in the preceding three*years for the same or affiliated employer in the United States or Mexico
be transferred to Canada to work temporarily for the same or an affiliated employer and
work in a capacity that is managerial, executive or that involves specialized knowledge.
A trader or an investor must:
be seeking to carry out substantial trade in goods or services, mainly between Canada and her or his country of citizenship, or conduct substantial investment activities in Canada, in a supervisory or an executive capacity, or in a capacity that involves essential skills
meet additional requirements under NAFTA and
have a work permit.
I am not Canadian. My cousins moved to Canada and told me about the NAFTA visas. You only need a bachelors degree, U.S./Mexico nationality, and a Canadian job offer. You can apply for Canadian jobs through websites, if a employer is interested in you, take the job offer to the Canadian embassy, and you passport, to request the NAFTA visa. The paperwork is simple if you are a U.S. National. (Mexican nationals have to submit more requirements)

With all the junk lawsuits in the US (which are not as common in England), I'd say that happens more often in the US than over here. Have you ever lived in England?

Of course not. But he watched Fox news given his grammar. Notice he he omitted that violent crime is 10 or more time lower in UK then in US, but well, details.
Well-developed Latin American countries like Costa Rica and Panama might be worth considering, especially if you have a nice cash cushion.
I wouldn't approach the issue the way you are, though. I would instead ask the following questions:
1) What are my skills and which ones can I or do I want to acquire quickly?
2) Where are these skills most in demand right now?
3) Taking into account the answer to number 2, which are the least bureaucratic countries and the most desirable to live in?
