  I’m convinced nearly every problem in the modern US economy boils down to a principle agent problem in the end.

      Properly its neither a "principle agent problem" nor a "principal agent problem" but a "principal-agent problem" (that is, the problem is a conflict between the principal and the agent [both nouns] nominally acting on behalf of that principal, not a problem with the principal [adjective] agent [noun].)
