I recommend reading this to everyone. Many people have a tremendous blind spot in their education. Even economics majors often have no concept of the foundation principles of economic theory. It is crucial to fill this blind spot before beginning to discuss questions like "Who will build the roads?" and "What about education?" James does a great job of starting that process.
Those that already know the foundations of economics can find some useful rhetorical tools in explaining it to the uneducated. It's also useful to have a refresher course on the basics, every so often.
It's not a long read, a couple smoke breaks or a lunch break can handle this paper.

The conspiracy-theorist in me wonders why they didn't do his thesis in the lecture hall, which is equipped for better audio and actual recording of video and audio. His thesis was the only one that was not allowed to have open attendance, the audience was limited to economics and law students only... but, it's equally likely that the administrators just still suck at their jobs instead of some sort of attempted censorship (which was also prevalent at Ave).
