The House on Tuesday voted to make daylight saving time permanent nationwide, amid a yearslong push to end the twice-annual clock changes.
Why not just make standard time permanent?
Problem this time is, this administration won't reverse the choice when everyone hates it. Not even when the children start dying on the way to school, instead of in it.
Time zones are bad magic but they're not going to kill anybody.
