I believe the Sermon on the Mount essentially says "clothe the naked, feed the hungry, take care of the sick.". No limits on time.
The Didoche was written in an era where Christian communities generally had little wealth and were constantly in danger of arrest or execution. This is NOT the case in most places now, and especially not in the US, which this meme is referencing.
Nobody who's suggesting state assistance is suggesting that we "take care" of people forever, at least not under the current system. Indeed, the data pretty easily shows that if you give people a place to stay, solid food aid, and some cash to deal with bills and miscellania, they start being functioning members of society, and get jobs and start the detox process or whatever interventions they need, really quick, like within months. This has been trialed even in the US in places like Denver, and it works.
So what you're really saying is "I don't want more of my money going to helping other people." Have fun being the richest man in the cemetery.
