End Daylight Savings Time!

Created by S.D. on November 04, 2012

Today we have all suffered the semi-annual torment of moving our clocks an hour to accomplish what would happen anyway in a month's time or less to satisfy an outdated and disproved notion. Daylight savings time has been defended on the basis that it would result in economic benefits for businesses, energy-savings, increased leisure time, greater safety for school-aged children, and a cure for the common cold.
None of these claims have proven valid. Parents know how difficult the abrupt change is for children and scientists have shown that adults actually have more heart attacks at this juncture.
Please sign this petition to end the madness of daylight savings time.
