Heres my thoughts:

1) Increased use of barbarians in the Legions due to Romans becoming weak and apathetic.

2) Too much political corruption and strife in the government.

3) Failure to defend Rome's borders (sounds just like another country I know of ...)

4) Massive poverty in Roman cities and the lack of basic services angered people.
