He is not accosting a passer-by and demanding to know why his head hearts. He is screaming that the passer-by caused his head to hurt and wants him to pay for the medical bill to heal it.
The author isn't trying to implement any new draconian programs to force men back to work; she honestly seems to be oblivious to the fact that she, people like her, and her chosen candidate are the very creators of the disaster she bemoans.
Maybe it's more like a guy wandering around with his eyes closed, running into doors, and when he asks the passer-by why his head hurts, the passer-by tells him to open his freakin' eyes!
