Permanent Daylight Saving Time is idiotic. It was tried before in the UK (1968-71), the USA (1973-74), Russia (2011-14) and Chile (2015). In each case, it was popular at first because it meant no more changing the clocks twice a year, but quickly became very unpopular because of early-morning traffic fatalities, children waiting for buses in pitch darkness, and general seasonal depression, made worse from it staying dark until late in the morning in winter.
