Americans are split on whether they prefer permanent daylight saving time or permanent standard time.However, the two time shifts – jolting as they may be – are not equal.
In 2023, clocks spring forward one hour at 2 a.m. on Sunday, March 12. They fall back at 2 a.m. on Sunday, Nov. 5.

However, exposure to light later into the evening for almost eight months during daylight saving time comes at a price.
