Editorial: Trusting Our Gut Feelings

We’ve all been there, our gut is telling us something and we dismiss it and what our gut was telling us turns out to be right. Is this amazing? Well think about it a minute. How many times has your gut been wrong? We always manage to forget about those times when our gut was wrong just as we forget about those times when our superstition of avoiding cracks in the sidewalk never brought us any luck. We can cling to our superstitions or we can continue to evolve reason and logic. It’s fine to feel uneasy at times but our feelings aren’t facts and our brains need to find answers. I’ve followed my gut at times, many times I’m right, then there are times I wish I’d trusted the facts. When you make your feelings the basis of your life then you’ve crossed over the healthy line. Feelings may at times win over facts but that’s no reason to abandon facts. Your brain thinks. Your brain is good at logic and reason to access facts. Give yourself the whole package. Just don’t make useful feelings your religion. L8R, ~plasmaborne

Greenwood is a neighborhood in Tulsa, Oklahoma. As one of the most successful and wealthiest African American communities in the United States during the early 20th Century, it was popularly known as America’s “Black Wall Street” until the Tulsa Race Riot of 1921. The riot was one of the most devastating race riots in history and it destroyed the once thriving Greenwood community.

Dylan Ratigan is mad as hell. Infuriated by government corruption and corporate communism, incensed by banksters shaking down taxpayers, and despairing of an ailing health care system, an age-old dependency on foreign oil, and a failing educational system, Ratigan sees an America that has allowed itself to be swindled and robbed. In this book, his first, he rips the lid off our deeply crooked system—and offers a way out. This country, now more than ever, needs passionate debate and smart policy, a brazen willingness to scrap what doesn’t work, and the entrepreneurial spirit to try what does. Ratigan has compiled brash and fresh solutions for building a new and better America, and with this book he has started the debate America deserves. With you, he wants to take back the country from the six vampires sucking this nation dry: • A political system in which lobbyists write legislation, lawmakers place “secret holds” to create more pork for their districts, and money drives the whole process. • A banking system that uses capital for speculation and debt creation, rather than productive investment. • A “master-slave” relationship with our Chinese bankers, making our corporations and politicians complicit in a system that rigs our currency and leaves us with permanent joblessness and massive trade deficits. • A health care system that is among the priciest and least sustainable in the industrialized world. • An educational system that prizes prestige but produces mediocrity. • An addiction to foreign oil that has sapped us of our willingness to innovate, made us reliant on inefficient technologies, and left us supportive of corrupt governments. To combat these vampires and to isolate the systematic ways in which our once productive industries and our government have been breached, Ratigan does not offer a grab bag of flimsy suggestions or useless hot air. Instead he provides readers with a set of values that together form the answer for how each of us can not only understand what has gone wrong—but join together to make it right.

You don’t dare tell anyone, but you’re a non-believer. Family, friends, co-workers and associates are oblivious, yet you ache to break the silence.
Your stories about how and why you’ve remained in the shadows. Callers may use aliases or no name at all. Just know that you’re not the only atheist who is weighing the consequences of “coming out.”
