Malcolm, a recession means a reduction in production. There has been continued growth in the USA economy, so ipso facto, QED and by definition, no recession.

Unemployment hasn't increased either [other than a tiny amount]. It's still less than 10% and more like 6%. I doubt average pay rates have dropped. The Biotelecosmictechdot.com crowd has come back to Earth with their pay rates, but the dinkum bloke in Peoria still gets the same pay as 5 years ago [I believe].

The escape from the Biotelecosmictechdot.com implosion has been one of the wonders of the world and Uncle Al KBE has done a great job, though he still has his hands full as the US$ revalues to something more fitting with the rest of the world's currencies. It has gone too far against the NZ$! [39c to 70c - amazing].
