If those are the choices, I 100% move to Germany. California is a smoldering shell of corruption and handouts to buy votes from various demographics. Germany, despite the insane tax rate, actually uses their funds somewhat efficiently. BEFORE you go, I would absolutely establish residence in a state with no income tax like Florida... consult a tax accountant! I can't speak on employment prospects, but with todays "work anywhere" rebellion, I'm sure you can find remote work if nothing else. The mountainous parts of Germany are just plain beautiful. I would love the opportunity to move some place like that.
