Daylight Saving Time is a relic of a time-gone-by and should be ended. It causes disruptions in the sleep cycles of Americans twice a year. With modern technology, Daylight Saving is irrelevant - we have electric lights that enable nighttime activity. Furthermore, DST is dangerous (http://www.telegram.com/article/20150306/NEWS/303069496)
The stated reason for Daylight Saving is usually "Saving Energy", but the government's own research shows that Daylight Saving costs this country more than it saves http://www.nber.org/papers/w14429 .
There may be economic arguments for longer daylight hours in the summer, but that could be applied year-round, since it is the change in time that causes the disturbance in sleep schedules leading to lost productivity and accidents.
