Kids walking to school in the dark all winter long is probably not the best idea.

Meh, only kids in the city walk to school. If you are making your kids go to public school in the city making them walk in the dark seems small by comparison.

I don't live in NY or NJ, and thus, I don't care what they do or don't do about DST.  Or their time zone.  Or, if they eliminate a.m./p.m. and go to the 24 hour clock format.

It is simply none of my business.

Naturally, I would like the same respect afforded decisions made by my home state.

Just pick one time and stick with it. Without moving the clocks constantly.

If the schools open when it's dark, move the school schedule, not the entire country.

Having them go directly home and hop on Xbox because it's too dark to play outside or do anything outdoors after school is probably not the best idea either.

......and it's about time.

The reasons for it were good once upon a time...just like summer vacation for schools...that time is far past.

Schools need to run year round with breaks for holidays.

Kids should have finished their sophmore year in college by the time they are 17yrs old for the sake our country
today and tomorrow.

Schools also need to weed out all the dead wood dragging down all the kids who have talent,potential,and smarts.

Get rid of the gang bangers, druggies, mentally ill, keep the ones who work well with their hands and brains...
and focus on the good kids...

Education system needs a complete overhaul but not sure this is the answer. The standardized tests and no child left behind have destroyed the curriculum and Colleges and Universities are liberal breeding grounds which then feeds down through the K-12 teachers to the students.

I'm all for the use of tactical nuclear weapons on those scammer fucks.  Every time they call from the Visa/MasterCard alert system or some other bullshit I think we should do something very CoC non-compliant to them.

President Trump on Monday threw his support behind efforts to keep the United States permanently on daylight saving time, which took effect Sunday morning.

“Making Daylight Saving Time permanent is O.K. with me!” Trump tweeted.

Yet many people here (I'm not one of them) seem to be in favor of a federal, one-size-fits-all solution.  

Each state should be free to choose its own time zone(s), and whether to observe DST or not.

Trump's fucked up a lot but I've got no problem admitting when he does good and this would definitely be one of those things.

Now, since the bill was filed by Rubio you have to admit he's doing something good too!

Permanent DST for the win.  I leave the house at 6am most days so it's dark no matter what.  Fuck getting dark at 530pm.  I like being able to have the option to enjoy the outdoors or work outdoors when I get home.  It's dark for the kids going to school in the morning anyway so what's the difference there?  Schoolbus picks up most of the kids around me between 630 and 7am.

The far western part of the UP is in the Central Time Zone. I like it that we're on the western edge of our time zone, I lived in NC for 8 years and didn't like the early sunsets
