I maintain that we have never really been in a recovery to begin with.

Yep. That “two negative-GDP quarters in a row” stuff is an arbitrary definition at best. I’ll say it again (maybe for the third time this week, sorry if you’ve seen this before), the only unemployment statistic that matters is the Labor Force Participation Rate, which has gone nowhere but down, and continues to bump along at 30-year lows. That’s recession, continuing from the previous recession, and a continuing recession.

Agreed. Nothing I have seen supports anything other than a much lowered plateau (new normal) that has been lied about as a recovery.
