“In the dead of winter, nobody cares that it’s dark at 5 o’clock. It’s too cold to do anything outside anyhow.”
Um, Wisconsin Dairy/Cattle Farmers do! The cows can’t wait. ;)
I wish they’d just leave it alone and let people get back to the regular rhythms of Nature adjusting things by the season. (And, it’s already dark by 6pm up here!)
Government can regulate daylight? Well, how come they haven’t solved climate change, yet? I mean, it just takes the stroke of a pen, obviously!

Yes, one of those factoids not well known: Cows (critters) like to be fed and milked on a regular schedule. So while the rest of the country plays around with opening and closing time the livestock people just carry on.
