Most weren't.
But the framers were.
Coincidence that they didn't want things like taxes, etc? When you take the small handful of rich, smart people in an infant nation and let them make all the decisions, it's no surprise that there is not language detailing helping out the poor and stupid (which was just about everyone else in the country at the time).
