I think the ridiculous part is assuming the constitution was written with the intent it never be changed or amended.

It wasn't supposed to never be changed or amended. It was -supposed- to be left alone until a -big- important change needed making...and then a process for making that change was provided. It's called the Amendment process, and it's difficult, expensive, and time-consuming
for a damned good reason. The Constitution is a contract between the Government and its' Constituents, and no half-decent employment contract allows the Employee (the Gov't, who badly needs to be reminded of this) to continually make changes to the terms of employment while giving The Boss (that'd be us, the American people) the finger and demanding the right to go through the till at any given moment.

Look at the data and I think you'll see since Reagan the right has been increasing and perfecting the borrow and spend method of funding government.

Look at the data and I think you'll see that this is why GOP "establishment" candidates have been taking a ferocious beating so far this year. You're entirely correct about this, and people are -pissed-.
