Why is Tennessee full of red neck hicks?
<|assistant|>
Tennessee has a long history of poor economic opportunities, largely related to its rural agricultural economy. This combination of economic disadvantages along with geographical isolation has led to the traditional values of conservatism and poverty being more prevalent in Tennessee than in other states. These traditional values, in turn, have influenced many people in the state to take a conservative stance on a variety of social and cultural issues, creating a largely conservative culture in parts of Tennessee.
