    Government should really ask the people if it benefits them, most people will say it does not.

    I own a business and the production of my employees (and myself) goes down for at least 10 days after the change. I have also noticed a sharp drop in purchases by my customers both in store and online for a few weeks after the change occurs. We would all be better off without the semi-annual disruption!

    I agree. Make it stop. Kids sleep is messed up for a week, money lost, NO benefit.

    In a globalized world, there is no need for daylight savings time. Even in a non globalized world. Nobody stays out later to shop. If shops wanted more business, open up earlier or stay open later. But quit messing with my clock already. It's a worthless practice that's meant to just cause anxiety and stress and give the media fodder to report on twice a year.

    DST causes major head aches for children and adults. School performance decreases for the week, effects lasting a while longer.

    Documented as deleterious to our health and productivity. The human body is designed to function on a natural sunrise-sunset cycle. Artificial times adversely affect this function. Every scientific/medical study endorses ending this very dangerous practice.

    I want to see daylight saving time end! Let's go back to standard time all the time and be done with it. Enough of this argument. Just stop it and stop it now. Its useless.

    Please end daylight savings time. It serves no useful purpose and has a significant cost on our country. Whatever the perceived benefits once were, they no longer exist. This practice needs to stop.

    I really don't see a valid argument for saving energy in this age of social media and being plugged in (using energy) 24/7. Also, disrupting our daily routines by shifting time back and forth is nothing short of torture.

    This is one of the most ridiculous things I have ever heard of. Daylight savings has been in effect for years and we have lived through it just fine. Do people seriously not have anything better to do.
