I think you are missing the point with your comments. There is not an option with this proposal. Either you go back to work or you get retraining. There is so much fraud in the system right now, that if you make these people take the option of going in for rehab or working a job that didn't pay them as much as they were working before-they will go back to work. Right now you have these people collecting a workers comp check and working jobs under-the-table. That is Capehart's point.
There are some really disabled people out there who have earned a workers comp disability award. They shouldn't be punished by those who are trying to cheat the system. The employers shouldn't be punished either.
You can see the full proposal on his website under Issues link. It is impressive.
