If it wasnt for my phone / PC / Tablet automatically changing the time, Id never remember when its DST.
 
That one time I went to a post office at 4.30 pm, but it was a week after the time had changed to 5.30 pm and it was already closed, and Im pressing the bell, banging on the door and the owner answers from her window upstairs 'Were closed, its past 5.30 pm'....
 
Oops.

Extra fun when you deal with Europe and they go to DST a few weeks later than US.
 
Invariably a few meetings that were adjacent are now at the same time.  Other than that I really don't care one way or the other.

I just wish they would pick one time and stick with it.

It's a bureaucracy.  I'll bet you'd like a flat tax as well?  HA!

Of course, any other option is manipulative and overly complex which only favors the very rich.
 
I remember hoping to NOT get an increase in pay because it would barely put me into a new tax bracket and I would be taking home even less.
 
All of that said, most people don't realize that taxation is actually not Constitutional (and neither is the fiat currency we currently use) and only came about when the Federal Reserve illegally came into being in 1913.  I did a LOT of research when I had everything stolen from me - months of it.  It makes me mad just thinking about it.
 
Of course, it also makes me chuckle when I hear all these passionate arguments about who should be President when I now know it doesn't matter one bit.  Everything is decided above that office which is why you'll always see the candidates conferring with someone from the "Council on Foreign Relations" at every press conference or public appearance to make sure they are saying the right things.
 
Ok, enough politics.  I can't stand politics.
 
IBTL!!!

No poly ticks, the tax act is a law.  We're discussing legal issues.  Obviously, by the way I spell it, I abhor poly ticks.

I think we're going to get rid of DST in like November or something.
