There are wealthy Rednecks and Middle Class Rednecks too. Rednecks are the same as "Good Ole Boys" as I understand it. "Hick" seems to be the slur if you want to insult someone's education and class. Personally, I think people are too politically correct and too sensitive. Makes my skin crawl to see people shy away from words like "black" and "poor" and "stupid".
It's amazing how many darn names we over-moral, over-sensitive people can think of.
We should be impressed with our creativity! However, we should also think about seeing a collective psychologist to help undo the last thirty years of cultural brainwashing that has taken place in the West.
Of course, mature and reasonable people should be respectful of others; and often are. I just hate to see otherwise intelligent people resorting to totally ridiculous language for the sake of other people's sensitivity.
