Or that everyone except yourself isn't an idiot and they did in fact consider it and don't view that worth the trouble.

- nemo44x 5y agoNah, it's an emotional thing for a lot of people who haven't considered it - they just hate that it gets dark early and it makes them sad. I've had this conversation with a lot of people and almost all of them agree it's a good system when they understand why we do it. Especially for people in the Northern parts of the country.
- nightski 5y agoHmm, I live in the northern part of the country and that isn't my experience at all. But I'm sure you have surveyed a statistically significant amount of the population, not just your little bubble.

- falcojr 5y agoI've considered it. I live in the northern parts of the country (WI). I have children that walk to school. Anything other than permanent DST is absolutely asinine to me. Most people do things in the evening. Very few people do things in the morning other than get ready for and go to work/school. Why would anybody choose to have light during that time and not later in the day?
