Once again, the omniscient members of Congress have imposed Daylight Savings Time on the docile residents of nearly all of the United States. Almost everyone knows by now that Daylight Savings Time saves little or nothing in utility costs and, in fact, imposes significant costs in terms of traffic accidents and, most of all, personal stress. It reportedly takes about three weeks for each person’s internal body clock to adjust to the changes that annoyingly occur twice per year. I personally wish that they would just leave time alone.
Adding insult to injury, the Journal regularly fails to insert even a simple visual reminder onto its front page immediately prior to the arrival of these noxious time changes in the spring and fall. Perhaps that regular oversight is among the many reasons for its declining readership. Doesn’t anyone at the Journal care anymore about actually keeping the public informed?
