How does a government facilitate comprehensive care for its constituents without sacrificing equity?

In my opinion the givernment cannot care for its constituents without sacrificing equity...
For the government to facilitate comprehensive care for its constituents they must spend money. By spending money the governemnt is providing the needs of the people like healthcare, pensions, social security... ect
Many Americans look to the government for aid, they want the governemnt to help them in a time of need. When people are laid off they look to the governemnt for unemployment.... there is also food stamps for families who cant afford food for family. There is also welfare and social security for elders. Families are looking to the government for financial help, receiving it, and then taking advantage of it.. I personally know people who are taking advantage and living off their unemployment for two years.. When people are getting everything they need from the governemtn why would they try to do it for themselves.

The government has all of these programs to help the people in need... there are limits on these programs but unfortunantly they are still being taken advantage of... I think it needs to be monitored at a higher level.
The government should, not only give these people "temporary" solutions, but rather permanent ones. Like, give them livelihood, or a job, so that they will learn to fend for themselves and not rely on the government or non-governmental organizations that help them.
 
types of aid include: welfare, social security, food stamps, financial/student aid, affordable living, unemployeement
