Eastern Standard Time is nearly perfect for Philadelphia! #NaturalTime #SaveStandardTime #EndDaylightSaving
Three clock faces showing that when it is 12:00 Mean Solar Time in Philadelphia, it’s 12:01 Eastern Standard Time (just one minute off) and 1:01 Eastern Daylight Time (sixty-one minutes off).

Adopting year-round standard time would be a great way to honor America’s workforce on Labor Day and every other day.

Before the federal Uniform Time Act of 1966, several states and cities observed Daylight Saving on different dates, to great confusion. #EndDaylightSaving
"The usual chaos of 'standard time and 'daylight saving time' again prevails in America," complained the North American Review in the summer of 1928, "and will probably recur every year, until Congress summons up sufficient gumption to perform its Constitutional duty and put an end to the foolishness." By the spring of the following year, more than 25 million Americans in sixteen states were observing Daylight Saving. Most of the participating cities and towns had adopted an abbreviated five-month schedule (the last Sunday in April through the last Sunday in September), but there was no end to the variations. Rutland, Vermont, waited until the last Sunday in May to advance its clocks, and Auburn, Maine, invented a three-month period, from mid-June through mid-September. But the Massachusetts law remained an anomaly; in ten years, no city, and no aggregation of cities and towns within another state, had converted metropolitan support into a statewide law.

“Daylight Saving” in the US was instituted for moneyed special interests. #EndDaylightSaving #FollowTheMoney
From Michael Downing’s “Spring Forward – The Annual Madness of Daylight Saving” (2005), page 47: When the clocks in England first leaped ahead in 1917, the board of managers of the New York Cotton Exchange immediately urged passage of a Daylight Saving law, explaining to the New York Times that it “would lead to an increased opportunity for arbitrage.” In fact, without Daylight Saving, the commodities, stock, and bond traders on Wall Street could expect no opportunity at all for arbitrage—buying securities on one market for immediate resale in another market at an advantageous price and profiting by the price discrepancy. That is, easy money. These price differences are typically brief—often momentary. And in a market of constantly changing valuations—the Twenties was a decade of unprecedented speculation on Wall Street—even tiny differences in stock prices could be leveraged into big profits. Currency trading offered similar opportunities. Trading on the London Stock Exchange ended da...

Daylight Saving doesn’t save energy. #EndDaylightSaving #savestandardtime
From Michael Downing’s “Spring Forward – The Annual Madness of Daylight Saving” (2005), page 44: Fuel economy, the principal justification for Daylight Saving during World War I, simply did not figure in the critical New York City debate. By 1920, saving fuel had fallen to sixth place on the top-ten list of rationales published by the Merchants’ Association, below “relief of eyestrain.” One reason was the unreliability of the data. Estimates for fuel saving continued to vary as wildly as the estimates of farm losses. Had Daylight Saving saved the nation $4, $6, $8, or $10 million in annual gas and electric light use? Had Americans conserved 1, 1.5, or 2 million tons of coal? Even today, the best evidence of fuel saving has to be inferred.
