John Williams of shadowstats.com

John Williams, founder of the website shadowstats.com, is infamous for publishing true unemployment and underemployment numbers. He is now oft-quoted and cited even among government economists, so his statistics have legitimacy behind them. He is not viewed as a wild-eyed radical extremist, which make his forecasts extremely discomfiting, if not alarming.
