Daylight Savings
Daylight Savings should no longer be observed in the modern world. There is a lot of evidence that proves that it is not only ineffective for its original purpose, but harmful. The complexity, economic effects, and effects on health are all reasons that daylight savings isn't beneficial. Day lights savings is far too complex. The rules and dates have to be changed in it and makes everyone on farther apart time zones. Also, it makes African, Asian, Hawaiian, and Arizonan time zones more confusing so they don't follow it. The economic effects of DST is also a huge problem. The USA lost about $434,000,000 in 2010 because of cyber loafing and medical bills from the health effects from DST. That leads to the third reason that DST is not beneficial, health effects. Sleep deprivation, heart attacks, and increases in suicide rates are all negative health effects from DST. This is why I don't think that DST is effective or beneficial in the modern time.
