An economic crisis is like a belt or setup breaking down in Factorio that affects the power system like coal drilling. In order to keep the machines running (so people don't starve) an economic stimulus is like sending out a bunch of resources manually to the downstream machines.
A business is just like a large animal or tree. It's not a static cache of resources but something that has a *constant* metabolism. It depends on things. Other things depend on it. It is not a machine that can be shut down and put into hibernation mode at will.

Not even laptops can do this! Leave it alone for too long and the lithium batteries get stuck in a 0 state and can't be charged anymore.

So while manually sending out resources doesn't fix the long term problem, they do prevent the starvation issue. The issue is these resources come from inventory and inventory eventually runs out...

The system self-corrects because the alarm and pain signals are flashing wildly and point the way to the issue. However, if the signals are so loud that they overwrite rational thought and ability to act then the system dies like an animal having failed the gom jabbur test.
