Make Daylights Savings Time (DST) Year-Round

I prefer more light in the evening than in the morning. Keep DST year round.

DST doesn’t technically make more evening light, but rather it forces early waking to create an illusion of more evening light. Let those who like early waking wake themselves early. Let the rest of sleep later for naturally better health. #MAHA

I’m curious: why do you believe that permanent DST costs money and lives? Don’t we have the same problem on the other end of the day with permanent ST?

Permanent Standard Time naturally aligns clocks to the sun and to human circadian rhythms for optimal sleep/wake schedules. DST forces early waking for an illusion of added evening daylight. The early waking makes it harder to wake naturally, and the later daylight makes it harder to fall asleep on time. We sleep on average 19 minutes less every night that we observe DST.

Please see the post I linked above for more information, thank you!
