Abolish Daylight Savings Time.

Created by B.D. on June 02, 2013

When Daylight Savings Time (DST) was an excellent approach to saving energy during a time when conservation of resources was important. As we move into the future, with advancing technology, resources are easier to come by for most Americans.

Safety concerns that some say are solved by DST have never been proven to be solved.

DST can have effects on people's health as well, as it forcibly changes the internal clock of the body, forcing people to adjust. It also provides increased costs for businesses as extra work is needed to accommodate people across the nation. Estimated costs rise up to $1 billion.

Arizona has not observed DST since 1967 with no issue, so the rest of the nation should be urged to follow suit.
