    We no longer live in the days of leave it to Beaver or father knows best. Folks now work all kinds of hours moms are not at home, kids are playing with their electronics. All are oblivious to time except those who now have to do everything an hour earlier and most will arrive back home after sunset. On Monday heart attacks, car accidents, and stress will increase. Let's stop it.

    This ridiculous and needs to be stopped. If I don't play along with this nonsense, I can't keep my job. Children will now be catching their school buses in the dark. My productivity is ruined for at least two months and I usually end up sick within a couple of weeks of this forward time change from sleep patterns having to change and unable to get proper rest. We didn't get to vote this in, we should not have to vote to get rid of it. Give me back that hour! I want my morning light at home!

    This is an outdated and useless practice. It is detrimental to the physical and mental health of our people. Stop messing with our clocks, now.

    Stop the madness, stop DST, there is no reason for it. The last excuse to extend it in 2005 to save power, didn't do it. Everyone is using energy efficient light bulbs now, so all you are doing is raising A/C costs by getting home earlier and everyone just turns on TV's and computers, so the time of day doesn't matter. People can just get up earlier if they want an earlier day, don't force everyone to do it. it's terrible for the children too. http://www.smartdatacollective.com/shawn-gordon/302476/abolish-daylight-savings-time

    I have heard it's for the children who attend public schools. I've heard it's for farmers. It's nonsense and counterproductive. Stop the stupid time change!

    Please stop DST! Nothing worse than losing an hour of sleep when you have worked a 16.5 hour shift only to have to set your clock up one hour. It's very disrupted to millions of people and businesses. It doesn't even do what it was suppose to do. Please, stop daylights savings time.

    The negative consequences of "spring forward, fall back" are demonstrably worse than the problems DST was supposed to solve, such as energy savings, better for farmers, etc - all of which have turned out to be untrue anyway. It seems like this would be one small nonpartisan issue that both major (and minor) party members in government could support. Which in turn might demonstrate, in a small way, that the federal government can actually get stuff done.

    It's a complete aggravation and serves no purpose. The percentage of motor vehicle accident increases with DST as well as a deceased productivity. If people and companies want to change their hours over the summer, they can do so individually as their option, and not forced.

    Please stop DST. Not only does it disrupt our internal clocks, it creates an unsafe environment for all. School children suffer from the time change, being too tired to learn and having their sleep schedule disrupted. The same goes for adults. Those in the medical profession ( doctors, nurses, technicians) suffer greatly. Do you really want a sleep deprived surgeon operating on you? It is not safe to continue this archaic practice of DST. Please end DST for the health and safety of all Americans. Thank you.

    World war 2 has been OVER for YEARS and there are very few farmers in San Jose, California these days. Switching the time back and fourth is obviously a ploy to keep the people down by tiring them out and confusing them by messing with their sleeping patterns. Many states, such as Arizona and Nevada. This needs to STOP NOW.
