...and just starts making up jobs for people?
Well in the Great Depression it took about five and a half years. (Counting from Black Tuesday to the day the WPA-funding bill was passed.)
Now the current crisis is a bit of a different animal than the Great Depression, but that's the only real comparison we've got.
