While I'll agree that it's easier said than done, what Z is talking about is not nearly so diffucult as you make it seem. I know, I uprooted my life in order to move halfway across the country (to Washington, in fact) just last summer. No, you can't just wake up one morning and say "I think I'll move to [Bleah]" and be there by sunup the next morning and expect everything to work out perfectly on anything more than a fluke. But you can wake up one morning, make the decision, and have you and your family there in a few months, or even a few weeks. Hell, this is the age where you can hunt for work over the internet, get most or all of your interviews over the phone and actually expect it to work. Well, as well as any other method of job hunting.
My point is that it is no herculean task to move somewhere just because you want to. It only requires planning and will.

maybe for you, but my family = my parents, my brother (and his wife and son), and my uncle (and his family).
I don't have a wife/family of my own in the same sense and there's no way in hell I'll convince all of them to move with me.
So yeah, I get a job here working for AT&T and they say "move to Nebraska and you'll get a promotion, +10k a year, and this is all guaranteed 100%" and then there's the choice.
Ohhh more money, better job, cheaper cost of life
.....and no family or friends.
guess which I'd go with.
