Utilitarian thinkers, such as Jeremy Bentham and John Stuart Mill, generally advocated for state intervention to maximize happiness and utility for the greatest number, which often involves expanding the sphere of state action. Limiting state action aligns more with classical liberalism, and totalitarianism is antithetical to utilitarianism.
