If you follow the keynesian logic: you have to spend during crisis.

But something all our governments forgot is the other face of the coin: during good times, you have to cut spending. But this is not a good way to buy votes.

So they did not and put a lot of country in a shitty situation. Best way to resolve this would be to start anew: default on debts AND cut all useless government spending until it gets back to income > spending.

Usually states can cut a lot of shit before going to the essential ones: elevted people salary, a lot of usual "created jobs", inefficient bureaucracy, waging wars, trying to stop some traffics which are harmless. And all the green shit too: that's a luxury for rich countries.
