given the way that the u.s. economy is run ( money makes the world go round) is it a good idea to move to a country who doesn't base it's life around money, I.E. health insurance, taxes, and so on. i've been living here in the u.s. all my life and i see the way other countries do their business and it gots me looking around for a better way of life......what do you think?

Apparently it is very difficult to get a visa for long term residency or work in France, however if it is your dream then it should be worth the time and expense. Bon voyage!

Well I'm living in Italy and i WANT to move in the US for a better life. Go figure.
Personally i do not think the old europe is a good place where to live. You talked about taxes, and health insurance, don't think here is any better. Probaly the only good thing is that workers have more protection. (there is not "one week notice" here) and care a bit more about welfare.
All the rest is pretty much crap.
Oh by the way: Europe average price for gasoline is 7.2 dollars a gallon. Mortgages aren't cheaper than the US, and average wages are nothing special, cars cost more than the US. because we have VAT (value added tax - around 20%)
Make your math...
Ciao
