Well, they aren't proposals, just ideas, bad or good. I don't see how you could turn off disability ratings. We made several life decisions such as where to live, my career, etc, based on that rating. We'll see how it pans out.
We to made our life decisions on my husbands disability & retirement which has got much worse. We will be going back to the DR's very shortly. We were lucky that he was close enough to retirement and could go to a shore command for a few months before retirement.This was 13 years ago. He has worked since then until his medical got worse two years ago. We had a great Senator where we were who helped us with the VA, but here we are on our own. We manage. Good luck to all the vets out there. If you have problems write your congressman or Senator sometimes it helps. At least they know your there.
