Should We Stop Changing the Clocks Twice a Year?

Daylight Saving Time starts this Sunday, aka the day that we lose an hour of sleep.

So here’s a question:  What do you prefer?  When we spring forward, or when we fall back and get to sleep in the next day?

A new survey asked over 1,000 Americans.  And slightly more people prefer when we spring forward and get more daylight. 35% said it’s better, 28% prefer it when we fall back, because they get to sleep in and everyone else didn’t have a preference.

The survey also found 54% of Americans wish we’d just eliminate the time change altogether.  So more than half of us are now on board with that idea.

Do you think we should still have Daylight Saving?
