It's a little late for that.

Where exactly does it say"very limited government"? If the government is
the people why would they want to limit the people?

In the part which says that any powers not given (mentioned) are
reserved for the state and people ... better late than never ...

More vagueness. I think you mean the states. The amendment before the
one you attempted to quote says we have other rights, besides those
listed in the Constitution and the Bill of Rights.

And "the people" manifests in our form of government as the House of
Representatives.

I'll make a deal with you. If you agree to disband the military, except
for a National Guard, I'll give up the Department of Education.
