"Joe Six-Pack is people just like me — work every day, pay their taxes."
— Mohammad Khan, an immigrant from Bangladesh
"When I think Joe Six-Pack, I think of the hunter and his gun and his dog, and
that's a definite white man out in the countryside,”
— Blanche Hake, a retired teacher
"The others are lazy. They don't work as hard, so that's where the Joe Six-Pack
comes in. He's a hard-working white man."
— Margie Orr
