An animated rap video from Taiwanese Youtube animators NMA features a prominent close-up of the book Atlas Shrugged in the black and gold themed 50th anniversary cover. Close up occurs at 1:45. What I find noteworthy about the reference is 1) not American 2) not negative. The video is not even anti-oil. It does endorse the Pigou effect and advocate market manipulation with taxes.
Rapping about economics is weird and unusual. I speculate this is inspired by the Keynes v. Hayek videos (Fear the Boom and Bust, Fight of the Century).
