    Stop this waste of time practice! It puts all of our bodies under an unnecessary re-adjustment period, and it serves no purpose. Also it's dark when we get off work, and that means less time to enjoy the outdoors - in the light - in the Winter with our family and friends; this is unhealthy! Absurd! Thousands suffer from light deprivation disorders; this is partially do to the fact many of us have to work all day, when it's light out, and by the time we get home it's dark all Winter. STOP PLEASE!

    Take a break from catering to lobbyists and deal with a real problem - end daylight savings time permanently. It causes more problems than it is worth.

    Please end Daylight Savings Time. It is complete nonsense and only adds confusion to all things pertaining to time.

    Please end this process. It causes more harm than good. Why can't we just have 1 time and keep it there. Figuring out schedules is difficult and getting back on body sleep patterns is difficult and takes serveral weeks to adjust.

    End Daylight Savings as it does not actually provide any savings. It impacts families with young children dramatically as children have to be weaned into a different sleep schedule for no other purpose than the time on the clock changed. As we adjust to the new time, we are more likely to have accidents at work and home. There is no longer, if there ever was, a need for Daylight Savings.

    I want more daylight at night when the kids get home from school to play outside. Everyone is aggravated by this antique practice.

    Please stop the old process of changing the clocks for daylight savings. There is no value added. It causes various challenges for people. It can also cause health risks for those with medications that are time based.

    This is a feel-good thing for some. It does NOT save energy. It has physiological consequences for humans which include decreasing worker productivity due to this physiological adjustment!!

    Please stop this practice of changing time. Had to change clocks, watches, TV's, furnace thermostats, answering machines, water conditioner system and so on. Not to say anything about the physical trauma! What a nuisance.

    Please end antiquated Daylight Savings! In spring, it causes more heart-attacks, more traffic accidents, and more work-related deaths do to fatigue. In the days of WWI it may have saved energy, but nowdays people run their A/C more. It's also a system of worldwide confusion, costing companies money as countries switch to daylight savings not all at the same time, and poorer countries and countries near the equator don't switch at all. Till Roenneberg, a chronobiologist at Ludwig-Maximilians University in Munich, told National Geographic that because of DST, β€œThe majority of the population has drastically decreased productivity, decreased quality of life, increasing susceptibility to illness, and is just plain tired.” Studies have found people never really adjust to losing the hour.

    There's nothing worse than getting off work at 5pm in the dark. First of all, it's incredibly depressing to think that an entire day of sunlight has gone by and I haven't enjoyed any of it because I've been stuck inside an office cubicle all day. Secondly, running errands in the dark after work is no fun either. When it's dark after work, I feel the need to drive straight home and jump into bed because the day is already done and gone. This is irrational, but who really feels like accomplishing anything in the dark? Daylight inspires us to act, while darkness is our cue that the day is done and it's time to rest. So stop messing with our heads and our clocks already!
