The world is dark enough, forcing us to go out at night sooner is just absurd. Sunlight shifts naturall anyway. Please do away with it. -

Daylight Saving Time is nothing more than a government-enforced oxymoron that accomplishes no real purpose whatsoever and actually causes more problems than it solves! Any parent can tell you that it's harder to wake kids up in the mornings following a time change, and don't even get me started on the "fun" of trying to get young children to go to bed in summer at their appropriate bedtime and hearing the "But it's still light out!" argument! Pets are even worse-they expect their food at a specific time, and when they don't get it due to the time change making it "late", they tend to get VERY disruptive about it! Lastly and most importantly, studies have shown that their is a clear link between DST changes and the rates of heart attacks, strokes, accidents, and disruptive behavior. Furthermore, there is no energy "saved" in the modern world due to DST and many Americans suffer from the "jet lag" effects of DST changes for days, if not weeks, following either time change. DST has long since outlived whatever perceived usefulness it had, and it is high time we abolished this mess and stuck with standard time once and for all!REPORT COMMENTS

Please remind me why we do this? All the old stories I've heard no longer make sense. It's disruptive and leaves us agitated twice a year. Is that the goal?!?!?! Let's just go back to standard time and leave it alone.REPORT COMMENTS

It only helps the utility companies to make more money. ie: Electric & Gas If other states in our Country can be allowed not to comply why not all of us. And itโs very much outdated... and yes it was used for Agricultural purpose long ago but those days are long gone . Please do away with Daylight Saving Time.REPORT COMMENTS

Besides being inconvenient, the practice of daylight savings may be detrimental to our health: https://mobile.nytimes.com/2009/03/10/health/10real.html?referer= Short and long-term health consequences would likely offset any savings accrued by the practice.REPORT COMMENTS

It serves no useful purpose any longer. Not to mention the increased rate of automobile accidents and other negative things that result from everyone adjusting their 'body clocks' by an hour twice a year. End it!REPORT COMMENTS

Please put an end to the crazy practice of changing time. It causes depression in those of us who already experience depression. This is a health nightmare. It's seems the powers that be can't get anything done in Washington, maybe you could actually do this.REPORT COMMENTS
