The Time Change

I hate the stupid time change. It makes no sense anymore. I could understand the reason for it back in the 1940's when people needed the extra time to get their crops in and things like that. It also saved fuel and resources back when people all worked a first shift job and that was that. Now, however, there is no sense in having a time change. The state of Indiana was a long time in holding out, and of all the things that I dislike about Indiana, that was one thing that I liked. It wasn't until the current Governor rammed it down the throats of his constituents that we even had one. There was quite a bit of belly aching about it at the time, and I was one of those people complaining. The reasons for changing our clocks twice a year were many, and all of them were stupid. My favorite was that it gave people more time to play golf in the afternoon. That didn't really fly well with all of the people too busy working, so they changed tact and went with-"It will give you more time for yard work." Whatever. Then they pulled out "It will improve the economy of Indiana by making us in sync with the other states. Gosh, Arizona still doesn't change their clocks and yet they seem to be managing just fine. Could it have been that it was a done deal from the beginning and the will of the people had no say in the matter? Spring forward, fall back, it's all the same to me. I just wish that it hadn't been forced on us against the will of the majority. I would like to have politicians that work for me, and not the other way around. Think about that, you'll thank me later.
