If a “big stimulus package” is the correct approach to a declining economy then logically it would iprove any economy and should be a permanent feature of government. The laws of economics are not a sometime thing. Either they are laws-true statements of how things work- or they are not. If the government can “fix” things by government action then there is no excuse for the government to permit any facet of the economy to function without careful planning and total control. If government direction is economically beneficial then we are bing foolish and immoral to permit any freedom in the market at all. But back in the real world, compare this economy with every command economy that has ever been.
