“It’s all about keeping their followers frightened, angry, and tuning in again the next day.” To this I say amen. It permeates our lives. The fear and the anger are dividing family and friends. It needs to end. As for daylight saving time, please look it up. We tried it once in the 70’s and it was a horrible failure.
As someone who works with folks across time zones, I'm a fan of China's model of one time zone for the entire country. Let school start at 08:00 in New York and 12:00 in San Francisco. So much of what I do is pegged to Coordinated Universal Time that a single zone would make my life a good bit simpler.

Personally, I don’t care whether it’s DST or standard. I just want to stop the time changes. People hate those too.
I don’t think any choice is going to please everyone.
