Counterpoint: the people who want it there forever should just be told that's what we're doing, they'll be back to licking windows before they realize the difference.

I'd settle for the half hour

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.

In the us your state can choose to do standard time anytimeiit wants. Daylight savings time is allowed in summer only so it is a federal issues and thus much harder to get passed.

I say we just split the middle. Change the clock by 30 minutes instead of an hour and then just keep it there.

I live so far up north that in the winter the sun rises around noon and sets two hours later.

I literally could not care less which time zone I’m in, the position of the sun has zero effect on my life.

Well they don't call it Donald Savings Trump for nothing. What better way to honor the god emperor than sacrificing time itself in his name?

(I gagged a bit just typing this, I'm sorry)

Make daylight great again

If only there was a standard.

No! Split the difference the other way! Make us jump two hours! Show us all how detrimental daylight savings is! Burn motherfucking greenwich to the ground! Or at least let me get some sleep!

This is the way.

Step one: agree that fucking with the clocks is really stupid and codify it into law

Step two: start arguing about which time zone is the “right one”

If you try to do both at the same time, step two prevents both

Split the time zones in half and offset them by 45-60 minutes.

EXACTLY what I always say.

I’m pretty sure RFK sleeps under sun lamps, that’s why he looks the way he does.

The real question is, how can the rich make money off of changing this? As soon as someone figures that out, I'm sure it will change.

The good old days, when the fire hose would occasionally turn off and we could breathe and participate in folksy traditions like complaining about the clocks.

Canada uses metric time though, I think. So, that wouldn't work.

Us law doesn't allow for that. Washington and oreagon could go year round standard time anytime they feel like it.

Yep, we'll probably increase it to 6x a year in retaliation for those eggheads trying to tell us what to do. That'll show'em.

Better yet hopefully we can get a child rapist or two to support ending dst then Trump will mandate it via executive order

"The Hyperborean Medical Association recommends an end to DST as Vril and testosterone are both depressed if noon isn't at 12:00 on the equinox"
