"However, even though I was born in the Mesozoic, I do know what anyone who wants to reach out to young people should say: Billionaires took your money. They took your chance to buy a home. They took your chance at a good education. They stole your opportunities. Billionaires took the things you want in life. If you really want those things, you have to take them back.
That's the message. That's the whole message. Say that every day, not just to reach America's frustrated young white men, but people of every age, race, and gender.
Late-stage capitalism is a wealth-concentration engine, focused on vacuuming up every dollar and putting it in as few hands as possible. Republicans are helping that vacuum suck.
How does a tiny fraction of the population get away with this? They do it by dividing the other 99% of Americans against themselves."

Im going to correct myself, I assumed this was a SSK. no idea on price.

I'd pay that for one. Especially if it had the square black logo.

Its the round black logo like the one in the ebay listing. Never actually owned a BS board before so i guess i might as well pick it up  :))

I thought about getting one but I'm not sure that I'd actually use it that much. I thought the industrial one was SSK at first, for that price!

A used industrial is not really worth that much if it isn't an SSK, Maybe up to a couple hundred in my opinion. NOS is worth what someone will pay for it. I wouldn't personally get something for that price as NOS and then use it as a keyboard, wouldn't want to not use it either.

But why would you pay that price when you could get this for cheaper....

Alternatively stalk ebay and get a used one for a few hundred, maybe less. Then you can use it all day long and still afford the rent.

BUT IN SAYING THAT NOS INDUSTRIAL NICE FIND.

Yeah, but wouldn't it be like buying a new couch and being afraid to take the plastic off?
