Or we could just get rid of daylight savings so we wouldn't have to complain anymore.

Given the massively increased percentages of death, injury, lost productivity, etc that's associated with shifting the clocks around twice a year, I would say it's a pretty big deal and worth addressing.

a healthy dose of skepticism might be in order if you think there are massive increases in death. I’ve seen the articles too, but please, throw on a skeptics hat when you read them. Easy enough to fudge those statistics to say whatever gets you in print. Think about it reductively next time your boss calls for an early meeting - is he trying to kill you? Negligent because of the massive risk of death you now face trying to get to the office an hour early? It is all a little absurd.

The biggest study I have an issue with is the heart attack one.

If you're to the point that losing an hour of sleep triggers a heart attack, DST didn't cause your heart attack. Daylight savings time rescheduled it from Wednesday to Monday.

Edit: I guess that was apparently in the original study, it just doesn't make it into most pop coverage of it.

"The overall number of heart attacks for the full week after daylight saving time didn’t change, just the number on that first Monday. The number then dropped off the other days of the week."

"Skepticism" might apply more if we were dealing with clickbait, but when you compare the "benefits" that DST provides with the misery that it causes, eliminating it is a no-brainer.

..and many more. You'll note a complete lack of sensationalist articles in the above links.

Keeping DST amounts to self-flagellation. Much like the existence of the penny, it's a thing that has few legitimate reasons to exist and many more legitimate reasons to be burned to the ground.

It's also a little absurd to think it has no impact at all.

Do you have a source for that? Because massively increased percentages is a pretty bold claim to make without a source.
