AP Photo/Hans PenninkDemocratic presidential contender Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is launching his economic proposals for the country in a run-up to Labor Day, focusing on using the private sector to produce an economy that benefits the working class.
That combination of policies might seem odd, after two elections in which “working class” policies became almost synonymous with the socialism of Sen. Bernie Sandes . But while Kennedy is focused on the same group of Americans — those outside the “knowledge” economy — he turns to the small business sector, rather than the state, to provide prosperity, though he adds guardrails like a $15 minimum wage and protections for labor unions.Kennedy’s ideas are rooted in private enterprise.
