Throwing money at unemployment benefits, Medicaid, etc., is not an "investment" it is "consumption".

Consumption will actuall boost the economy for a time. But without capital gains it is lost and then you are left with the debt. Then inflation, collapse, and then depression. That is we may have postitive GDP growth, but then the recession will be back worse than before, and that will grow to a depression.
