I agree with you, DAve. The function of government is to do that which we can't do for ourselves. Such as courts, national defense. Postal Service? Well, maybe.

<<<It is my understanding that the Constitution's main function is to limit the powers of the government not to proscribe what can and should be done. There are some exceptions of course, such as keeping an army, postal service, courts ect. >>>

What is an army? Isn't it a bunch of armed people? Do you think private armies are a good idea?
