Let me get this straight...

The Daylight Saving change: no savings, no point

...you based policy on a failed experiment in Australia, and in doing so cost various IT companies and departments millions of dollars, inconvenienced every American with any piece of electronics more elaborate than a digital watch and potentially threw off scheduling systems for millions of Americans, not once, but twice (first for the new switch and then again for the old switch when everything tries to switch automatically). All this pain (some of it recurring for years to come) for absolutely no useful gain?

What do we pay you for again
?

Oh, right to "insure domestic tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general welfare, and secure the blessings of liberty to ourselves and our posterity"

How could I have forgotten?
