I'm fairly certain someone could run on the green party ticket and have their main platform to be against changing the time and they would win any federal election including the president.

i just can't get fired up about DST, either way

you get the same amount of daylight regardless of what the clock says



This. I don't get why people get so wrapped up in this. Do you really need to trick yourself based on the clock setting?

This is why political positions are so saught after.

It allows the following 2 situations to occur:
1 allows poisoning of no only a local constituency, but also the entire country.
2 getting wealthy with kickbacks

For me, it is daylight available after school and work are over that is important. I am not waking up at 7am to play basketball or golf with the kids before school then doing it after school so I can have same amount of nonwork/school daylight.

so will the change be STD time all yr or DST all year?
Preferably DST year round. Rather have that extra hour of daylight in the evening to do stuff outside and an extra hour to sleep in before waking up to go fishing or hunting.

Exactly. I’d rather have a little daylight left after work ends at 5pm.

You boomers complain about this twice a year. It’s really not that big of a problem

That's the whole purpose. Until they find a way to make money it will not happen.

Exactly. It is a small problem/inconvenience that none of our damn politicians will solve. It's one the majority of Americans hate. It's facking easy to fix it.

It is a problem too because people need to be outside and more people are likely to go outside after work than before it. Then people get less exercise and vitamin D and then get fatter and sicker. It's a health problem.

I’ve got it. Clocks that adjust themselves incrementally a few seconds each day to gradually shift between regular and daylight savings time. Plenty of money to be made by forcing people to replace any clock that isn’t part of a smart device.

There’s a lot of bigger problems. States should change it.

States have changed it but it is contingent on federal approval... Your ignorance is showing.
