Jokes on them I wake up and go to work in the dark regardless of which one it is.
What really sucks, is waking up and going to work in the dark, and then leaving work and getting home in the dark. Talk about depressing.

More daylight at the end of the day for what, exactly?
We need and can make good use of the daylight in the morning more than the evening.
If we do permanent DST, people will drive to work and school in the darkness and then spend the vast majority of their day indoors, in exchange for a little bit of fading sunlight on their drive home.
It’s a dumb, bad idea.

studies have shown that year-round DST would reduce traffic accidents

In parts of the country it wouldn’t be light out until almost 10am.
It’s crazy. People will be waking up four hours before sunrise, and our bodies just don’t want to do that.

You guys really want it to be dark at 8AM? I hunt and while it would allow me to sleep in a little longer, it would screw me on workdays where I go get a quick hunt in and get back for work at a decent time.
Selfishly, I was thinking the same thing. I can duck hunt from first shooting light (6:15 ish) until 7:30 AM, run home and hit a quick shower, then at my desk working by 8:30 at the latest. Personally, I don't want that to be messed up as it's a pretty awesome. But that's just me being selfish haha

We need more daylight.
Thank you DJT

I like them both at the time of year they’re used. An hour later sunset in the summer and earlier sunsets in the winter. I don’t know why people are such figs about changing time twice a year.

you get the same amount of daylight, regardless of time...

[L]ack of morning light can have serious impact on our biological clocks, which control the body’s many daily rhythms, including our sleep and wakefulness cycle. Humans require adequate morning light so that our internal biological rhythms synchronize properly to the local time. There’s a wealth of data demonstrating that a lack of exposure to light leads to sleep and metabolic disorders, depression and cardiovascular disease, among other ailments… Permanent Standard Time is the only fair and viable option.

[E]xperts in biological rhythms and sleep unanimously agree that Standard Time year-round is the best option for public health and safety… If DST is kept year-round, sunrise would be later in the winter, leading to decreased exposure to morning sunlight… [C]hildren will have to commute to school in the dark for about a third of the school year. Our body’s internal biological clock needs exposure to morning light. When exposure to sunlight in the morning is reduced, our biological clock drifts later, making it harder to wake up and causing an increased mismatch between the body clock and local time (a condition called social jetlag). DST also exposes people to more evening light, which further delays the biological clock and makes it more difficult to fall asleep… As experts in circadian biology, sleep, mental health and safety, we understand that removing the time change in favour of permanent Standard Time is the preferred option.

Why do DST people hate science?

Because it is a stupid bunch of crap.
Hell, move it 30 minutes either way and call it good.
It really isn't that complicated.
Arizona does it right.

Standard time is more in tune with our natural rhythm. Please lord standard time!

You enjoy getting home after dark for a third of the year?

Yeah, the posts contradict themselves. One says, "suspend Daylight Savings time" , which means we would stay on Standard Time.
The other says,"We need more daylight at night", which means "Stay on Daylight Savings Time" all year.
Which is it?
