Some of the homeowners who are losing wealth reside in Clarke County, Ga., Congressman Broun's home turf, which also had $1.9 billion in deposits in financial institutions in 2006, according to the University of Georgia. That ain't chicken feed. And speaking of which, the fourth largest employer in the region, poultry processor Pilgrim's Pride, is now struggling with financing because credit markets have seized.

...truth in advertising" standard applied to all advertising. Commercial companies are bound by restrictions that prevent them from making false claims about their products or those of their competitors. Certainly, corporations test those laws all the time, but they do so at a significant risk. When Kentucky Fried Chicken tried to claim that fried chicken could be part of an effective diet program in 2004, the Federal Trade Commission penalized the company, requiring it to pull the commercials and submit all advertising for FTC review for the next five years. Mendacity in commercial advertising can also carry a steep financial...
