Extend Daylight Savings Time!
I hope this passes - the reasons everyone is against it is a bunch of horseshit (just more unnecessary panicking like industries did before Y2K)

Just think of the possibilities it would be awesome! Yeah you would have to be in the dark a little longer in the morning, but who really wants to be exposed to bright light so soon after waking up? I love being all groggy and being weaned back onto daylight after a night's sleep.
Conversely it would be so much LESS depressing during the winter! It is so easy to get depressed when you leave work and it is pitch black out - even though it's only 5PM. 1 more hour of daylight would certainly make us all a little more chipper.
Shit, the pharma industry is going to fight this then - it would cut prescriptions of Prozac! Oh well who cares, gimme more light and save me some money on my light bill - that's good energy policy!
