pimento64In 2022, the American Medical Association called for a permanent end to Daylight Savings Time, citing negative effects on health
EtterraOh my state passed a law abolishing it but the federal government stopped it. You want to know why? You want to know the stupid reason why the federal government won’t abolish daylight savings?

They literally can’t decide whether to always have the clock one way or the other, so we get to split the difference. I don’t fucking care. Just pick one and stick with it. Everybody has electric lights anyway, it’s the 21st century, we need to move on from this 1700s bullshit.
Exactly, most of us don’t care but there are jobs where it matters, so go with what’s best for them. Construction maybe? Either way, we don’t need majority opinion here.
HamsterRageThen change the hours of the jobs, not the clocks.
That fucks with everything else though, eg childcare.
