many countries still in good condition and could manage to generate positive annual GDP.

You need to remember that most governments are known for manipulating such data so that they may look like in good conditions but when it come for real test of recession, the real situation will come into limelight and ending up suffering of its people. I read some countries are excessively printing money regardless of their actual production nor gold reserves to bail out things so that its economy may look like stable and growing.

We are past due for a recession based on history.

Probably I guess governments and corporate had learned how to prevent recession or at least the tactics of delaying it. As per my country slow down in many sectors has been a regular news and lots of people are losing their jobs as daily event. Still, government officials are saying economy is in good state and layoffs are due to other reasons like inefficiency. I guess we are at recession already but my government is trying to make it up as much as time they are able to, for political reasons.
