It was tried under Carter, and it was an EPIC FAIL!
Moms all over were screaming about sending their kids to school in the dark.
The kids where I live are already going to school in the dark since the bus comes by before 6:00am. Even on Standard time it’s still dark here so I’d rather stay on DST and get an extra hour of light when I get home.
What time were they sending them to school ... 6:30?! There's plenty of daylight at 7:00am.
Yep. Kindergartners standing in the dark waiting for the bus while people are trying to drive to work while eating, putting on makeup, talking or texting.. Yeah, that won’t be a problem. No one will get run over. Sure....
I remember that! I was a very young lad, but I do remember that!
Grew up on the farm in Nebraska. Didn’t matter the time, we were up before dawn.
