Can't chooose just one.But I think I'd begin with poverty.If we're supposed to be such a rich country then I wonder why we have so many homeless people.Which shouldn't be the case.

There wouldn't be so much poverty if there wasn't so much ignorance, and consequently greed........
Poverty. If poverty were eliminated worldwide, I think that many of the other items on the list would be addressed and possibly even fixed. Funds would be available, and the lost and lonely would be more involved in society and part of the process.

Ignorance is lack of knowledge otherwise known as education. With proper funds, ignorance is eliminated. Because of proper funds there really would be no need for greed.

Ignorance perpetuates ignorance and no amount of money or education has worked to cure that yet...If we can simply get rid of ignorance, I vote for that.

Maybe you need to look up the word ignorance. This is the word OP used. Ignorance and knowledge are very closely rlated. Perhaps you are talking about plain old stupidity and laziness?????

There are many kinds of education and many of them don't cost money. A typical one would be common sense, coupled with compassion, which is gained from experience......all knowledge.
If people had common sense and compassion then they wouldn't let other people go hungry, (just to have a second car or yacht, or whatever luxury they have convinced themselves they need). Money would be more evenly distrubed because it was the right thing to do, and fair to everyone.

They tried that, it's called Marxism, I believe.
Communism was a grand idea, it just didn't account for all the corruption
