"If the Constitution was intended to limit the federal government, it sure doesn’t say so..."

The Constitution doesn't start with the premise that the federal government starts with no limits, then has explicit limits imposed.
The Constitution starts with the premise that the federal government has no powers, then has explicit powers granted - and the entire list fits on one piece of paper; if that's not a limit, there is no such thing.
