This seems like such a simple thing to me, and yet the US just can’t seem to get it done. What are the issues preventing this?

    I prefer the hour of light in the morning, hands down. Helps me get out of bed and start my day.

    Now, if we could somehow just make it so sunrise was like 645am in perpetuity, I’m on board with that, but the stupid sun keeps moving!

            Those are fair points, but the workday and my kids’ schooldays exist, and my workday and other parents’ workdays all coexist with this school day, and it probably does come at the expense of RC planing and hiking a couple months a year (except weekends), which also happen to be the months folks are most likely to not want to spend time outside because it sucks, although that’s just my opinion from Jersey, and I’m sure there’s places that are more temperate and allowing for outdoor activities in December through February.

            Oh, good point!

            The only point I’m making is it’s personal preference and I’m not sure we will ever find a solution where everyone is happy.
