For all those worried about kids. I went to school in the dark in cold weather and ice, waiting for the bus, got to school just when the sun came up...and it was better than having no sun or only maybe an hour after school to have fun. I suggest buying your kids the 230 degree LED head lamps. Pick your poison, traffic sucks everywhere no matter what.
Truth! I lived in Arizona for 4 yrs and forgot how disruptive the time change is until I moved. It’s absolutely terrible. And I grow a lot of food..the extra hr does not help anything and teens simply need more sleep. We are on corporate time not human.
it took my bus about an hour to get to school and I was one of the first stops, so I had to wake up even earlier than most, and then costs got cut and my bus stop was further away and had to wake up even earlier to allow me time to walk to the bus not run. And on top of it all I'm an insomniac so I had to have so many meds just to get me to sleep that were still in effect well into the morning. Unfortunately, people with health problems are minorities and have to pay the price to being forced into majority rules.
@@XAutumnXFlowerX I’m bipolar..insomnia from a few health issues..I’m NOT a minority! My family..(yes I have kids too) like the later hours! Sorry but we kinda like being out in the sun at 7-8-9 pm! We get the same amount of sleep either way!
I totally agree with you. We have more serious issues in our country than to worry about a dam time change. The extra hour of sleep helps my mind,body and spirit. This is all Corporate America and Marco Rubio doing! It started in Florida they proposed the bill.
Having lived in Hawaii in 4 years, I've never even heard of this dumb tradition until I moved to Minnesota. Since then, I'd say I would vote for anyone willing to get rid of this nonsense Curse...
@der Jakob this grandma works 12 hour night shifts at a hospital.. in the winter I go to work at 600pm until.630 am. I sleep from 9 am until 5 pm. So in winter I go to work at dusk and it is dark when I get home. I use black out window coverings for sleep. I am old enough to remember when we did not change the clocks. It was wonderful and natural. I would love to have early morning light in the summer to garden before sleep and sit on the deck in the evening light. You young people do not know any better or differently.
how much the clock matches your so-called "natural" rhythm is highly subjective and generally dependent on where you are within your timezone and your proximity to a coastline. everyone's daylight schedule is different regardless of which option we choose. Nature wont be changing at all. if you need to locally adjust your work and school schedules to fit your natural clock then thats an issue that needs to be tackled at the local level anyway. personally I dont see how 4am to 7pm daylight hours during the summer would be considered more natural. either way, I think the most important thing is to stop shifting the clocks. I definitely prefer DST but either way, if we stop shifting the clocks we can then settle on a schedule that works for everyone locally, and if our local community needs to push for schedule changes because they decided on standard-time year round, then I guess we can cross that bridge when we come to it.
@@PinkHawk191 standard time is better for you because our clocks are synced with the sun Body clock follows the sun Daylight saving time doesn’t sync our clocks to the sun which causes you to sleep less for 8 months Daylight saving time is only good for summer because days are longer In winter days are shorter Daylight saving time doesn’t create more daylight In Atlanta sunrise at 7:42am which would change to 8:42 Sunset at 5:28pm which would change to 6:28 You are putting millions of people going to work and school in the dark for third of the year
@@tahmidabdin4625 It’s better for me coming home from medical appointments which seem to happen every week. It’s still light out. I can also spend more time outdoors on the weekend.
All health and sleep experts agree that standard time is best for us. People's experiences also agree with standard time being optimal to their health. Why are we trying to contest it and make daylight saving permanent? Oh I forgot, this is America and only corporate interest matters.
Time change dose not increase or decrease day light for any given day. Deflection and BS is all we get from this administration. Much more important things to corrected caused by this administration.
@@leonardonetagamer Corporate interests are behind the push to increase and make Daylight Savings Time permanent. Why? Money. Retail shopping and other in-person businesses do better (more money) in daylight hours. Having more daylight hours after work and school appeals to corporations hoping we'll buy more stuff. People are less actively going out and buying stuff when it's dark. Source: Network explanations. Standard Time tho is better for health and safety, esp of children.
@carl you explained it so well and like my mom says the person that wants to spend money will spend it regardless if its day or night so away with dst in my opinion
Finally, so glad we putting an end to daylight savings. I really don't care which side of the hour we adopt permanently. Just as long as we stop switching.
@@DP-vh4wb yea bc our biological clocks doesn’t adjust to it automatically either, takes like a week to get use to the switch every time the time changes
I really want this to happen, I am sick and tired of having to wake up every freaking March feeling like crap because of the stupid time change every freaking year.
Bo-hoo. I guess you've never travelled. You adjust in a few days- seriously, it's call being an adult. And anyone who's med timetable is so tight that an hour makes that much of a difference, maybe you should discuss this with your doctor rather whining on the internet.
There is no law that says that a business can't open earlier or later if they want to. Same with schools. It's not like we are all automatons wired to the clock mechanisms. Picking a single time that doesn't change is enough. Arguing over which one is just silly. If anything, we should pick a single world time.
LMFAO Then we should just stay with standard time if it makes no difference. Is there or is there not medical evidence that changing sleep habits put stress not only on the mind but also on the body?
@@paultrombetta5168 That is the point. This is a debate about preference and Team standard time revolting. I prefer to have it lighter in the evening so I can go outside after my work. But that only works for me since I work 1st shift. I no doubt 3rd shifters would like more light in the morning. Ultimately it doesn’t matter.
Clocks are an abstraction and there is no reason why we can't change the start times for work and school. Regardless if Standard or Daylight Time, we can declare a different start and stop times. If using Daylight Time requires students to arrive at school at 7am and it's dark out, change their arrival time to 8am! The same with the start of work!
Right, but then why bother changing the clock to begin with? It would make more sense to leave the clocks where they are and let people adjust their schedules if they choose.
Well work won't change. If people can work 8-12 hours overnight,there is NO reason a person needs to wake up later. That just describes the personality of the person. And the outcome doesn't sound to good. Boss-"Oh,you can't make it because it's 6am? Tommy over here is on 9 hours and got 3 hours of work left until he gets off at 9am but you can't even wake up at 6am?" That's the shut down argument right there
@Mercy: It is already set that way with standard time. 8:00am start time for school during standard time means it is daylight out. If they make DST permanent that means school would have to start at 9:00am, which would mean parents would lose an hour of work every day, which would mean their income would go down which would mean they couldn't afford the needs of their family when they already struggle to meet those needs, which could result in families losing their homes or being evicted from the rental home. Businesses are not going to move the work day to a start time of 9:00am, neither are they going to keep the doors open an extra hour so employees can make up the hour they lost getting their kids to school at 9:00am when the sun is finally up.
Gotta say it was weird getting ready for school and it was still dark out back in the day. Walking to the bus stop was scary till I got there with the other kids
Americans always take a lot of time to change anything which is outdated. The US still can't adopt the metric system eventhough the world have a long time ago.
If we're going to get rid of the time change, how about getting rid of the unpleasant spring ahead time change instead of the good one where you get to sleep in an hour?
Everything she said just reinforced the reasons why DST is the time to stick to. Right now, winter sundowns before 5PM keep people from having any daylight hours apart from work times. If you can only see one hour of daylight per day, would you rather it be during your morning commute, or after you get home to enjoy it? Instead, just when DST could be helpful, we end it. Hello, vitamin D deficiencies, seasonal affective disorder, unkempt lawns and unfit bodies due to lack of outside exercise, all to drive home at the end of the day tired in the dark. The obvious answer to the early school times is, as she mentioned, shortening the length of the school days. Start later. If we know the modern lifestyle of sending children to school early in the AM is not best for them, why do we keep doing it? Sacrificing the health of the children for the convenience of adults is not a good enough excuse.
That is good news for business and politicians and bad news for people health as is well know and back up by research... just wondering if there was $ paid to senators or lobbying to pass such absurd bill.
The dark isn't going to hurt you, and I'm sick and tired of having to deal with having to feel like crap every freaking March because of the stupid time change.
Wells it’s about friggin time, I literally do not even wanna to go through another year of this till 2023. How is standard time better when you’re losing an hour or sunlight?
I don't understand the problem. I get up on Saturday morning and change all my clocks forward an hour. So at bedtime I've already adjusted to the new time and it doesn't affect me at all. Why are people not being told to do this?
@berserker406 correct That’s why you should change your clocks the day before you go to bed Go to bed according to the new time on the clock That’s what I do and it helps a lot especially when the clocks set 1 hour forward from 2am to 3am
Above all else. Having it get significantly darker during the colder seasons makes winter time kinda depressing. I’m willing to sacrifice one hour if it means we never have to do it again.
🙏😡It doesn’t matter! Just pick one and stop the changes and people will adjust. All the crap happens because of the fall back and spring forward….just pick one! 🙏😡💝
I'm very ready for this. DST was started in 1919 (with only 6 months and was extended to 8 months) as a way for us save energy, but Americans don't live on the same schedule as they did in 1919. We are a society that runs 24/7. People stay up longer and they're out more late at night, especially in larger cities. For those of us with seasonal depression, more daylight in the evening would be very beneficial.
@@thatpengman , if you have natural light in the evening, you don't need to burn as much electricity. Of course, this assumes that you get up around 7 a.m. If you have a long commute, or have to get up early for some other reason, you will just burn the energy on those dark mornings.
@@smokingthereefer92 I've been working a 12 hour shift work schedule for the last 17 years! Five days on then 4 days off! Most of the time I work (because I want too) 16 hours straight! It is depressing in the winter when its ALWAYS dark! Thats just me! I personally want the sunshine, I feel better and I can get a lot more things done! IMO I work a swing shift, one week days then the next week night's!
It really messes with my sleep cycle, I literally feel jet lagged for about 2 weeks till my system recalibrates. I know if the whole scheme of things, this is not a huge life problem. No one wants to feel jet lagged for tho!
People, I agree stop the switching, but let's make it permanent standard time not dst. Plus if we go permanent standard time yes during the winter months we'll see 5:30pm nights, but during the summer months you'll still see a couple extra hours of daylight
4:30pm where I live. and if we go to standard year round then in the summer the sun will be up at 4:30am and only last till 6:50pm on the longest day of the year.
We won't all see 5:30pm nights because we don't all live at the same latitude AND we don't all live at the same longitude AND the time zones are HUGE! It's pitch black outside at 5:00pm in the winter where I live. We don't see sunshine for MONTHS. I hate it.
@@TheSouthIsHot well in that case we all should just stop complaining and keep the switching going, so it can be good for both parties cause I don't see a good solution here since both times have their pros and cons
This is what Congress did? Really? Of all the things they have not done, this was it? Out of all the things we have gone through, going through and need, this is what they did....
tbh i want the extra hour of sunlight in the evenings in the winter. the sun setting at 4:20 on the shortest day of the year (Seattle, WA) is depressing AF, as are the preceding and following months that the sun sets before actual evening.
Be glad you don’t live in Alaska. In the summer the sun doesn’t set some nights and in the winter the sun doesn’t rise some mornings. Now THAT is really depressing!
Permanent daylight saving time means the sunsets are later in the day right? If so, that gets my vote - get to enjoy more of the day after work and no more commuting home in the dark.
It would be cumulative. Later sunrise and later sunset. So we will be dark at 8 am and fully bright at 10pm. Go back to being on standard time. Standard time is natural time.
I live in a state that is on a time zone boarder. And 1 hour literally makes no difference for the school children. I don’t see any statistics that my state has a higher death rate for school aged children because they get up an hour earlier than the next. And news flash, it’s still dark in the neighboring states when the bus comes. This is just people being contrary to personal preference. You want to bring an “expert” on your news station to influence our preferences than at least have the decency of showing your viewers the data that supports your case. It shouldn’t be too hard. Some states even support two time zones. Let’s not forget the students of Alaska. Should the one hour of sunlight they have be shifted so it lines up with the commute to school or commute home???!
So we lock our doors and windows when it’s dark out to keep safe, but then we push little Juan and Suzy out in the dark to walk to the bus stop and tell them it’s safe out there?? 🤔🤥🤭
If they do this it won't last long, because people will be mad about kids going to school in the pitch black for so long- it's the same thing that happened last time. Daylight savings time for part of the year works better than the alternative.
Permanent daylight savings time is INSANITY. It was tried one before, in the seventies. After people complained about their kids walking to school in the pitch black, it quickly went back to switching the clock. There are three options 1. Get rid if DST, which stinks, because we get early dark summer evenings 2. Keep DST year round, which stinks because we get late, dark winter mornings 3. Change the clock every 6 months, like we do now. I vote for three..losing one hour sleep is a VERY SMALL PRICE TO PAY for daylight summer evenings and no late dark winter mornings
@@vicepresidentmikepence889 or we could, you know, have a consistent time keeping practice and request that employers and schools adjust their schedules as needed in order to offer sane hours? the illusion that we are somehow changing time is the insanity. nature doesnt change, so why change the clocks?
@@Speedj2 uh because it’s simpler to just magically switch the clock back in the middle of night when most of society is at rest than to impose multiple different time schedules on businesses, schools, and government.
Schools should change the time kids start school in areas that’s dark and no more changing times, I begin work at 4am and losing an hour of sleep effects me tremendously
Where I live, during standard time come Dec/Jan returning home in the dark is a regular experience for work, school, and other activities. The hour adjustment works for certain demographics/locations. It may be things have changed enough that the shifting of an hour no longer brings much benefit... having the public weigh in on it isn't a bad idea.
sounds like you need to change your local school policies to suit the needs of your local area. sending kids to school so early in the morning that they would even be affected by this change is crazy.

Truth! I lived in Arizona for 4 yrs and forgot how disruptive the time change is until I moved. It’s absolutely terrible. And I grow a lot of food..the extra hr does not help anything and teens simply need more sleep. We are on corporate time not human.
it took my bus about an hour to get to school and I was one of the first stops, so I had to wake up even earlier than most, and then costs got cut and my bus stop was further away and had to wake up even earlier to allow me time to walk to the bus not run. And on top of it all I'm an insomniac so I had to have so many meds just to get me to sleep that were still in effect well into the morning. Unfortunately, people with health problems are minorities and have to pay the price to being forced into majority rules.
What extra hour? When is there ever 25 hours in a day?

@der Jakob this grandma works 12 hour night shifts at a hospital.. in the winter I go to work at 600pm until.630 am. I sleep from 9 am until 5 pm. So in winter I go to work at dusk and it is dark when I get home. I use black out window coverings for sleep. I am old enough to remember when we did not change the clocks. It was wonderful and natural. I would love to have early morning light in the summer to garden before sleep and sit on the deck in the evening light. You young people do not know any better or differently.
Only bad thing about this is your kids have walk and wait on the bus in the dark
So change the time school starts.
that sounds like an issue for your local community. maybe you should change your school times to start later.
@@suedeblue1 you must not have any kids .
Who cares. I have 9 year olds. They will survive
Back in the day my ancestors went by the sunrise and sunset for their day. Why does this government think they can control time?
Would be healthier for all to keep the standard time as the permanent one. I definitely feel the disharmony when out of sync with sun & natural rhythm
The sun and your natural rhythm will be the same after a nominal adjustment for the last time. Nothing "healthier" about dark at 4p at all, EVER!!
Standard time isn’t better for me. It’s dark by the time I get home from my day program meetings for adults with Autism and medical appointments.
how much the clock matches your so-called "natural" rhythm is highly subjective and generally dependent on where you are within your timezone and your proximity to a coastline. everyone's daylight schedule is different regardless of which option we choose. Nature wont be changing at all. if you need to locally adjust your work and school schedules to fit your natural clock then thats an issue that needs to be tackled at the local level anyway. personally I dont see how 4am to 7pm daylight hours during the summer would be considered more natural. either way, I think the most important thing is to stop shifting the clocks. I definitely prefer DST but either way, if we stop shifting the clocks we can then settle on a schedule that works for everyone locally, and if our local community needs to push for schedule changes because they decided on standard-time year round, then I guess we can cross that bridge when we come to it.
@@PinkHawk191 standard time is better for you because our clocks are synced with the sun
Body clock follows the sun
Daylight saving time doesn’t sync our clocks to the sun which causes you to sleep less for 8 months
Daylight saving time is only good for summer because days are longer
In winter days are shorter
Daylight saving time doesn’t create more daylight
In Atlanta sunrise at 7:42am which would change to 8:42
Sunset at 5:28pm which would change to 6:28

@@tahmidabdin4625 It’s better for me coming home from medical appointments which seem to happen every week. It’s still light out. I can also spend more time outdoors on the weekend.
All health and sleep experts agree that standard time is best for us. People's experiences also agree with standard time being optimal to their health. Why are we trying to contest it and make daylight saving permanent? Oh I forgot, this is America and only corporate interest matters.
I doubt less daylight is healthier for us, what corporate interests could possibly tie into this?
Time change dose not increase or decrease day light for any given day.

@@leonardonetagamer Corporate interests are behind the push to increase and make Daylight Savings Time permanent. Why? Money. Retail shopping and other in-person businesses do better (more money) in daylight hours. Having more daylight hours after work and school appeals to corporations hoping we'll buy more stuff. People are less actively going out and buying stuff when it's dark. Source: Network explanations. Standard Time tho is better for health and safety, esp of children.
@carl you explained it so well and like my mom says the person that wants to spend money will spend it regardless if its day or night so away with dst in my opinion
Omg is everything going to be changed can't they just leave s&#t alone
A fourth view is change it 30 minutes and leave it at that all year long.
That’s some advanced mathematics which we all know us Americans suck at 😆
That’s too complicated for most Americans.
Yes compromise is NOT the US way. Lol
This is not important at all... but since its a topic of conversation this is something people should be able to vote on.
Like standard time,make that permanent, Don't like losing 1 hour of sleep. Extra daylight don't do much for me.
Doesn’t give you extra daylight but it does change time on the clock
Standard time gives us more light in the mornings
According to experts standard time is more natural for our bodies.
I think switching the clocks back and forth is nonsensical...
Permanent Daylight Saving Time should be a valid option.
Finally, so glad we putting an end to daylight savings.

Bo-hoo. I guess you've never travelled. You adjust in a few days- seriously, it's call being an adult. And anyone who's med timetable is so tight that an hour makes that much of a difference, maybe you should discuss this with your doctor rather whining on the internet.
I'm up for either one. Just ready to stop switching.
There is no law that says that a business can't open earlier or later if they want to. Same with schools. It's not like we are all automatons wired to the clock mechanisms. Picking a single time that doesn't change is enough. Arguing over which one is just silly. If anything, we should pick a single world time.
LMFAO Then we should just stay with standard time if it makes no difference. Is there or is there not medical evidence that changing sleep habits put stress not only on the mind but also on the body?
yes but they won't for decades

@@paultrombetta5168
That is the point. This is a debate about preference and Team standard time revolting.
I prefer to have it lighter in the evening so I can go outside after my work. But that only works for me since I work 1st shift.
I no doubt 3rd shifters would like more light in the morning. Ultimately it doesn’t matter.
Noon should mean noon...they have chosen false time as the standard
I remember going to middle school in the 1970s in the dark during the "energy saving time" measures! Not a pleasant experience.
I remember this in the 90s
Clocks are an abstraction and there is no reason why we can't change the start times for work and school. Regardless if Standard or Daylight Time, we can declare a different start and stop times. If using Daylight Time requires students to arrive at school at 7am and it's dark out, change their arrival time to 8am! The same with the start of work!
Right, but then why bother changing the clock to begin with? It would make more sense to leave the clocks where they are and let people adjust their schedules if they choose.
"People" don't get to choose, businesses and school boards choose.
Well work won't change. If people can work 8-12 hours overnight,there is NO reason a person needs to wake up later. That just describes the personality of the person. And the outcome doesn't sound to good.
Boss-"Oh,you can't make it because it's 6am? Tommy over here is on 9 hours and got 3 hours of work left until he gets off at 9am but you can't even wake up at 6am?"
That's the shut down argument right there
@Mercy:
It is already set that way with standard time.
8:00am start time for school during standard time means it is daylight out.
If they make DST permanent that means school would have to start at 9:00am, which would mean parents would lose an hour of work every day, which would mean their income would go down which would mean they couldn't afford the needs of their family when they already struggle to meet those needs, which could result in families losing their homes or being evicted from the rental home.
Businesses are not going to move the work day to a start time of 9:00am, neither are they going to keep the doors open an extra hour so employees can make up the hour they lost getting their kids to school at 9:00am when the sun is finally up.
Western Malaysia be like
Gotta say it was weird getting ready for school and it was still dark out back in the day. Walking to the bus stop was scary till I got there with the other kids
Except going to school while dark happens every year in my state during standard time and no one is negatively impacted.
Americans always take a lot of time to change anything which is outdated. The US still can't adopt the metric system eventhough the world have a long time ago.

Everything she said just reinforced the reasons why DST is the time to stick to. Right now, winter sundowns before 5PM keep people from having any daylight hours apart from work times. If you can only see one hour of daylight per day, would you rather it be during your morning commute, or after you get home to enjoy it? Instead, just when DST could be helpful, we end it. Hello, vitamin D deficiencies, seasonal affective disorder, unkempt lawns and unfit bodies due to lack of outside exercise, all to drive home at the end of the day tired in the dark.
The obvious answer to the early school times is, as she mentioned, shortening the length of the school days. Start later. If we know the modern lifestyle of sending children to school early in the AM is not best for them, why do we keep doing it? Sacrificing the health of the children for the convenience of adults is not a good enough excuse.

That’s why you should change your clocks the day before you go to bed
Go to bed according to the new time on the clock

Finally end this crap. Nothing is worse than upsetting the circadian rhythm. Pick one and stay with it.
Above all else. Having it get significantly darker during the colder seasons makes winter time kinda depressing.
I’m willing to sacrifice one hour if it means we never have to do it again.

I'm very ready for this. DST was started in 1919 (with only 6 months and was extended to 8 months) as a way for us save energy, but Americans don't live on the same schedule as they did in 1919. We are a society that runs 24/7. People stay up longer and they're out more late at night, especially in larger cities. For those of us with seasonal depression, more daylight in the evening would be very beneficial.
@Mr Sir what's your argument for DST?
@@thatpengman , if you have natural light in the evening, you don't need to burn as much electricity. Of course, this assumes that you get up around 7 a.m. If you have a long commute, or have to get up early for some other reason, you will just burn the energy on those dark mornings.
DST didn't start in 1919, it started in the early 60's.

If they do this it won't last long, because people will be mad about kids going to school in the pitch black for so long- it's the same thing that happened last time. Daylight savings time for part of the year works better than the alternative.
Permanent daylight savings time is INSANITY. It was tried one before, in the seventies. After people complained about their kids walking to school in the pitch black, it quickly went back to switching the clock.
There are three options
1. Get rid if DST, which stinks, because we get early dark summer evenings
2. Keep DST year round, which stinks because we get late, dark winter mornings
3. Change the clock every 6 months, like we do now.

Where I live, during standard time come Dec/Jan returning home in the dark is a regular experience for work, school, and other activities. The hour adjustment works for certain demographics/locations.
