In the Preamble to the Constitution, the Framers of the Constitution stated: "We the People of the United States, in order to form a more perfect union, establish justice, insure domestic tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general welfare and secure the blessings of liberty to ourselves and our posterity, do ordain, and estabish this Constitution for the United States of America."

The Founding Fathers knew that in order to restrain the government and to prevent the abuse of individual liberty, the government must be limited to promoting the "general" welfare rather than providing specific welfare to certain groups or individuals.  They understood that if the government had the authority to take the property of those who earned it and to give it to others, the elected officials would use those tax dollars to buy the votes of the members of the groups that were the recipients of the beneficiaries of the entitlements.

The Founding Fathers detested the way Great Britain was divided into classes.  Our Founders wanted there to be only one class of people in America.  They knew that the establishment of classes would ultimately lead to our downfall.  They wanted everyone to be equal under the law and did not want the government to have the authority to reward one group of people while punishing others.  Our Founding Fathers believed in the principle of "Equal Justice" while Karl Marx was the Father of the principle of "Social Justice."  Equal Justice is a principle of freedom and individual responsibility while Social Justice is one of the pillars of tyranny.
