In northern latitudes, school kids will be going to school in the dark, waiting for buses if DST through the winter. A little less pronounced in FL. Kids waiting in the dark AMS was very unpopular when Nixon first invoked it in 1973 ( height of Watergate) during the first energy crisis , the thought was it would save energy.
