You pretty much summed it up in the poll. Unions and Government.
Actually... contrary to my above statement, the US government is one of the most stable (if not THE most stable) in the world, and is a rather good system. The Constitution, Bill of Rights, and Declaration of Independence are all great political papers.
To me, the whole problem is not the Government as it sits, but the people in it. People are getting too greedy, and its the confliction between Conservative fueled Democrats/Republicans and Obama's objectives. What the US needs now is some no nonsense level headed George Washington, Benjamin Franklin, Alexander Hamilton, Thomas Jefferson, etc. incarnate types. We need to sit down, look at ourselves, bring back America and make it a country less reliant on importing.
Then again, thats just me.
