DST is Unhealthy and Dangerous

The government knows about the heart attacks and all, it's not just the National Geographic author in the referenced article making it up. The Congressional Research Service has had all the information. For example, in their own studies they have found the following:

"potential health effects associated with the spring and fall transition to DST and found a cumulative effect of sleep loss and increased risk for incidence of acute myocardial infarction in specific subgroups (Congressional Research Service)."

Of course, the common man hears the phrase myocardial infarction and doesn't immediately think it's a heart attack. Maybe it's not deceptive, but one wonders. Also, the sleep loss happens after the spring change, not the fall. In the fall, we gain sleep. Sleep loss is extremely unhealthy!

Below is an excerpt from the referenced article.

"The impacts of this change, and the paired “falling back” of the clocks in autumn, run from mild annoyances to potentially severe consequences, including higher risk of heart attacks, fatal car crashes, and harsher judicial sentences. Yet with many business interests siding with the annual observance of daylight saving time—often incorrectly called daylight “savings” time—the pesky time change persists across most of the United States (nationalgeographic.com)."
