About
Brad Bondhus is a degreed Mechanical Engineer who began his career in 1978 with Westinghouse Electric Corporation. As a result of the economic cycles of the next 43 years, Brad's work varied from synthetic fuels to airborne optical systems, from submarine electronics to satellite failure analysis and included mail sorting equipment for the USPS. His career high point occurred in the early 1990s as part of a team developing a new and novel power electronics. In 1994 that task ended as the once-dominant Westinghouse collapsed into the dust bin of history leading to a lengthy period of reflection and introspection. A time when he slowly began to shift thoughts from career advancement to social issues and how the USA developed into the society we have today.
Brad began to realize that history is a narrative to support the interests and goals of the elites of a society. A narrative that can change with time depending on the wishes of the ruling class. A narrative used to project an image to the world and manipulate the citizenry. By omitting critical aspects of history, the interpretation can be radically distorted.
He concluded the American public has been manipulated to maintain a cultural divide. By dividing the public, the ruling class is able to run the nation for the benefit of a few to the detriment of the many. He came to this conclusion while pondering the following questions. How can America's longest war, "The War on Poverty" be a total failure and yet the system resists change? Who benefits from the failure? Why do the institutions running "the system" claim there is systemic racism?
