TLDR: Ty Masterson has been fiscally irresponsible with our government and in his personal/professional life, and he owes the Kochs for pulling him out of poverty. His only professional financial successes have been his no-show job at the Koch-funded Go Create and his stint in the Kansas legislature. He should not be in charge of deciding how to run our state or fund our schools. Read this article for more on his financial history and please note Cindy Holscher’s credentials which do not include bankruptcies or no show jobs funded by anti-public education deep pocketed funders.

Ty Masterson’s 2010 bankruptcy filing doesn’t jibe with his talk about fiscal responsibility.
