What Are the Real Stats?

It shouldn't come as any surprise that the federal government changes the way it computes statistics.  Sometimes there are good reasons (e.g., seasonal adjustments make a lot of sense).  However, sometimes it seems they're just trying to make a bad situation look a little better.
shadowstats.com is nice alternative perspective on such items and the unemployment rate and the inflation rate.
