That's your narrow minded conservative take on it and I think most would disagree, we the people for the united, not otherwise, states of America.
"We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America."
On the definition of "General Welfare", but if we look at how they ran government at the beginning of our existence, it sure doesn't seem they meant huge social beaucracies.
