People really like to complain that Standard Time is the reason that it's dark when they leave for work and dark when they come home instead of the fact that they're just AT WORK the entire time the sun is out.
How about we change the work schedule instead of the way we measure time you dipshits?
3 day weekend is the true answer. Maybe with an 8-3pm work time. we're daytime animals, we can't really fight that. these demands are probably also unreasonable, some places may need to be open all the time to produce enough of the items we do need to survive.
plus it gets darker because the sun tilts, which can't be helped depending where you are. DST just makes it worse and depresses us northerners/southerners even more.
