Abolish Daylight Savings Time

Created by A.T. on February 08, 2014

I petition to abolish Daylights Savings Time in the United States and it's holdings.
Daylight Savings Time seems like a good idea,however it causes confusion and does not seem to really benefit anyone in this day and age.
In the health care field alone there are many areas that can be affected, such as adjusting medication times, causing confusion and frustration to mentally altered patients by not letting their bodies and minds adjust to the season changes gradually, medical devices have to be reset which in some cases requires a physicians help.
There is a lot of debate for and against, but if ALL of the states in our nation do not use it, why should any?
