Straw man argument. Nobody is making the case that Daylight Savings time increases the amount of daylight. Instead, we are talking about "shifting" the daylight from the early morning hours (when most people are still sleeping or getting ready for work/school) to the early evening hours when many people are engaging in recreational activities.
I would rather have it dark at 7a.m. in exchange for it being daylight at 7p.m., when I am more likely to be out in my yard, taking the dog for a walk, or sitting at a beach.
