In the immortal words of John Oliver: "Why is this still a thing?"
No, contrary to popular belief, the practice has nothing to do with farmers. The Germans adopted it as a fuel-saving measure during World War I. And in the modern era, e.g., when Indiana adopted Daylight Saving Time in 2006, it led to a 1 percent increase in energy consumption. Oh, and studies have shown there’s an increase in car accidents and work-related injuries in the week after the time change. Yeesh.
Mr. President, please issue an executive order putting an end to Daylight Savings Time.
