Take Away Daylight Savings

Created by B.H. on March 07, 2014

We feel that daylight savings has outlived its usefulness. It is less advantageous to many people and businesses that need more light in the early morning because the sun rises later.

This is the opposite of what daylight savings time intended to do.
