Remember, poker is a game of luck and skill. Over time, the luck evens out, and the better/more knowledgeable player will always win more. If the goal is to win $, you want to be playing against the least informed, least skilled opponents possible. Experienced players aren't going to misread their hands or call with a low flush thinking they'll split the pot.
Against loose players and calling stations, pre-flop raises are essential, not useless. Use them to build the size of the pot, put pressure on your opponents, and induce bad calls. If they aren't the type to re-raise, all the better. You should be raising every time you enter the pot with a premium hand. Save limping for when you are in early position with speculative hands like Ax suited or suited connectors.
