Has anyone else noticed that James Brown's Funky President has pretty much the exact same plot as Atlas Shrugged? Replace Galt's Motor with Brown's Funk Motor and they're exactly the same.

Exhibit A:

Exhibit B:

hey country, didn't say what you meant
just changed the brand new funky president
stock market going up, jobs going down
there ain't no funky job to be found
tax keeps going up
i changed from a glass, now i drink from a paper cup
gettin' bad

people people
we gotta get over before we go under
listen to me
lets get together and raise
lets get together and get some land
raise our food like the man
save our money like the mob
put up the fight, own the job

tell em' godfather
turn on your funk motor
