If “value” and the economy are essentially man-made, why can’t the world just sort of… Hit pause to avoid global economic crisis?

I know there must be reasons and this is a dumb question, but I’m a bit of an abstract thinker and have trouble grasping it from a big picture presepctive. Can someone break this down for me? Can’t we all just kind of agree to just kind of… Reset some numbers or something?
Sincerely,
I’ve never taken an economics class in my life

As long as people do not suddenly “pause” to need stuff, the economy is running for the better or worst. Problem is, we all need to eat at the very least.

Economy is a side consequence of the humans needs and the overal peaceful share of ressources, not because we decided to build a fun convoluted thing someday.
