The the school, and every employer, and every government agency, and the stores, and the public transportation, and so on and so forth.... will have to all agree to change their hours. On the same day!

You might not like DST, but leaving it in the hands of every entity to interpret is a far worse situation.




> will have to all agree to change their hours. On the same day!

Imagine if there was a powerful body representing the population that could decree a change like this!

Instead, we only have a body powerful enough to decree that all of those people change their clocks on the same day.

Anyway, the best part of changing the hours instead of the clock is that not everybody needs to do it on the same day.
