We shouldn't be looking for stupid shit to fix. There is nothing wrong with our time zones or day light savings time. It's quirky, so the fuck what. I like having cultural quirks, it adds to uniqueness of cultures. Don't go changing us so we conform to some Star Trek communist utopia where every person and culture is the same. I like diversity.
VDH is right, we need to get back in touch with our Yeoman Farmer foundation, we would be a much healthier nation if we did.
Don’t you remember when they started this? DST is not traditional, and back then most workers were 9 to 5. There was at least some daylight in most people’s lives.

No, most weren't, we were a predominantly Rural nation until after WWII. Ben Franklin was right on DST.
Stop hating Farmers. Keep our Rural Traditions Alive.

I really hope you are being sarcastic and not seriously whining...………………………. Nervous Leg Syndrome much
It's called a permanent neurological disorder and -- newsflash -- time changes are pretty rough on it.
Not that you have to be disabled to be negatively affected by this dumbass policy.
It's a twice a year, Embrace the Suck.
I mean, WTF, people fly and drive over Time Zones probably millions of times a day. How is that one our difference Fall and Spring such a huge fucking problem...…………….. let's ask Ms Blasey Ford, sounds similar to her fear of flying from the attempted Gang Rape of her youth.

Fuck you. I am petitioning the democratic party Congress to adopt French revolutionary time to mesh with the metric system that is now mandatory. The imperial system is fraught with toxic patriarchal oppression. Current year.
Actually a pretty good Jacobin engineering feat. "It's 5 o'clock somewhere!"

It came back in the 70s IIRC.
What I’d actually like is permanent daylight savings time (always light at the end of the day).

Same time everywhere, same brightness outside everywhere. That is what I want, and I want it now.
Not my problem HeyDay, move to the bright side of the moon and you will have it.
No, you wouldn't. The moon spins on its axis too. Your days would be about 28 Earth days long though.
For legal reasons, we are not threatening to destroy U.S. government property with our glorious medieval siege engine. But if we wanted to, we could. But we won’t. But we could.
