To push that point further, we had it easy in 2008 because governments used QE to push more money into the economy and prop up banks, but what if they can't grab that free lunch next time?
All programming languages have tree representations of their syntax, so are kind of a 'lisp' under the hood. However other languages typically don't allow you to get under the skin of the compiler in the way macros do to manipulate those trees. Therefore I don't think all programming languages converge to lisp (although lisp can converge to other programming languages!).
