Californians voted to keep Daylight Savings Time year-round. Do you buy this explanation?

Asked by Jeruba (55828points) November 7th, 2018

I suspect that some significant number of them believe that this means more daylight hours—longer days. As if you could legislate the seasonal timetable of the earth’s movement. Probably some of those are the same people who don’t know the difference between climate and weather. Not to mention the woman who said that if standard time was good enough for God, it was good enough for her.

My husband doesn’t believe they’re that stupid.

If you don’t think it’s possible, you probably haven’t heard the phone conversation about deer crossings.

What do you think? Are people that stupid? Not all, of course, but some. A lot.

I note that all this vote means in practice is that now the state legislature has to consider it. No change is imminent. For what it’s worth, I did vote against this proposal.
