Have you looked into what it takes to get a permanent visa to one of those countries? It’s not easy.

Its not that hard especially for an American.

  It is that hard, I’ve looked. You typically need to rank highly on a skill list AND have a relatively well-paying job offer. And if you think it’s hard interviewing in your own country, it’s far worse interviewing outside of it.

    What are you comparing it to? Americans have a much easier path to permanent residency than a vast majority of the world.

    In comparison yes, it’s easy. In practice it’s far outside the means of the average American. Hell, more than a quarter of all households in the US are living paycheck to paycheck right now. That’s effectively impossible.
