re: Say it with me folks: the single biggest factor in America’s problems is:

The biggest factor creating problems in the US is the lack of accountability perpetuated by the apathy of the middle class and an unfair justice system that favors the Washington DC elite.

Apathy of the middle class due to consumerism and technology. This is also a factor in rampant depression and unhealthy thrill seeking. The middle class sits in their houses and stare at the magic box while politicians rob them blind.

The Unfair justice system is obviously those in power realizing they can get away with almost anything to keep power, and the behavior is allowed by the apathetic middle class. Look at the Trump/Mueller saga... If Trump colluded with the Russians, Mueller and his team are certainly allowing someone who has been compromised a TON of time to change/lead the country. So either Trump is corrupt and Mueller is allowing it or Trump is clean and Mueller is corrupt looking for anything to bring down the outsider.
