Daylight saving time is an archaic concept that many other countries have already abolished. Introduced during WWI as a fuel saving measure by Germany, however, energy consumption today is much more complicated.

Additionally, studies show an increase of car accidents and work related injuries the week after the time change. There is no discernible benefit to anyone.
