It sounds like the snowflakes will be having their way and all 50 US States will be subject to a new law forcing mandatory year-round Daylight Savings Time starting in 2023.

Besides all of the problems this will bring instead of going to permanent Standard Time which makes more sense, both options probably have the mercantilists licking their chops.

Think about the "smart devices" that were built to auto-adjust twice a year. Sure, some may get software updates but others will have to be replaced. Older dumb devices don't adjust, so we can simply "set it and forget it." But what about big-ticket items like current cars or even major appliances?

Imagine winters where daylight doesn't break until 9 AM.
