The corruption of Congress i.e. the so-called leadership of our society, then like a cancer spreads into society itself. And this corruption has been ongoing now for decades, where laws and rules and the Constitution itself are routinely ignored in the pursuit of mostly more profit being funneled to a relatively few individuals (such as Elon Musk) - at the expense of all the rest of the society, who no longer benefits "fairly" from the fruits of a free society. Egregious wealth Inequality really is the basis of the current demise of the US. It's not "government" - government is just a mechanism, a tool - that the wealthy have taken over in a way that should never have been allowed to happen (why we had a Constitution and a 3 tier government system of checks and balances in the first place).
