The picture does tell the story: That fallout from financial crisis' have a much deeper and prolonged shock to an economy than experienced during your typical cyclical recession. Something completely miscalculated by the current administration.
And a measely $700 billion spent mostly on UI extensions, tax cuts and emergency aid to states undergoing collapsing tax receipts did exactly what it was capable of doing: Putting a bottom under the collapse.
