    I think it would be best for everyone involved to end this experiment called Daylight's Savings time. Drivers are crazy enough as it is, I can't see loosing an hour of sleep making them any better on the roads. Unless... Wait... Yes of course! How could I not see it before? If the goal of the experiment is to see how many people you can stress out and make miserable, everything makes sense! Of course, by this time it's no longer an experiment. It's more like a scientific law.

    DST adds an unnecessary stressor to modern day life, imo. I believe that it contributes a much higher cost to the already high cost of medical services. It would actually save money nationwide if the practice were to be discontinued. Not to mention the general confusion and upset to people's schedules, bio-rhythms, etc.

    The antiquated ritual of DST need to be put to an end . Advanced forward thinking people know it's unnecessary.

    As someone who lives in AZ and appreciates that we do not have daylight savings time (I used to live in MI and disliked it there), it is challenging to do business with other states who do change. It probably never made sense but certainly doesn't anymore. And to think that it was extended a few years ago- what were they thinking?

    It proves to be no help to farmers. In fact it causes more trouble. It has been proven that we're not saving on energy, big zero, zip. It's only for retailers and sport activities. I'm sorry but it's not worth all the negatives.

    Daytime saving time doesn't save anything. There are 24 hours a day no matter what. It will only mess up our body's internal clock. If the daylight time is longer, so be it. We can enjoy longer daytime. We don't need to turn on our light that early, no matter where we are, either at work, or at home. Changing clock's doesn't change anything except our work schedule, not in a good way.

    And the nationwide daylight savings time change. It is an outdated practice and is unnecessary.

    It is darker for the children in the morning and I've seen more deer hit due to daylight savings. It really has never seemed like a rational idea to change time for any reason. Let us please return to standard time. And on a more comical note- yesterday, one day before I would have set my clock ahead, my "pre-programmed" clock did it for me- so I got up a whole hour earlier on Saturday! (don't get me started about computers.....)

    It's crazy to change to daylight savings. Not to mention kids having to get up in dark and wait for school buses in dark. It has NO purpose!!! Please stop this insane mess!!

    It is really dumb and it throws me off every year. Sorry not sorry @BenjaminFranklin, but like, we don't need it anymore. In fact, I think the economy probably suffers due to daylight savings because it is likely that more workers forget to reset their alarms, miss work, and productivity slows as a result. It is an injustice to the American people which we must amend.

    This is an unnecessary aggravation that serves no useful purpose. It makes it harder to put kids to bed and then makes them walk to and stand in the dark at the bus stop. Nor does it "save" energy if you need to expend it in the morning instead of the evening.
