And your argument is that the only reason DST exists and still exists is because of the Joos, which I say is laughable.FOS » 07 Mar 2024, 1:23 pm » wrote: ↑ Dude 'permanent' dst means no dst...meaning you stop moving the time around based on the seasons.

you are failing at reading comprehension. Farmer preferences are at odds with jewish preferences but the jews win.
The Jews had nothing to do with it's implementation and only want to keep the practice as a matter of convenience. There are probably just as many people that want to keep it as don't as well, and they certainly aren't all Joos.
My point about the farmers is that they prefer standard time over DST, and we're opposed to the permanent implication of the latter... because of the disruption to their schedules... which is the same argument the Joos are making.
DST started in Germany of all places, in WW1... I guess by German Joos.

Germany became the first country to implement Daylight Saving Time in May 1916, ostensibly as a way to conserve fuel during World War I. The rest of Europe followed shortly, and the United States hopped on board in 1918. But even though many of us have heard the practice started to help farmers who wanted an extra hour of daylight in the fields, the opposite is actually true.
According to Michael Downing, author of Spring Forward: The Annual Madness of Daylight Saving Time, farmers actually lobbied vocally against the practice. It caused them to lose an extra hour of light in the morning, meaning they had to rush their crops to market. And for dairy farmers, the time change throws off the cows, too.
