Why We Need Daylight Saving In The Winter Months
maybe even in Autumn, too.

As everyone knows, unless they've been under a rock hibernating each year, Winter's days are shorter than Summer's, and that's why I propose we have daylight Saving in Winter.... to give us longer days.
It makes sense! And here's why.
As a young bloke I worked in a cabinet maker's factory, which was okay, but in Winter I'd go to work in the dark and go home in the dark. I didn't see daylight all week long, and being sunlight is our best source of vitamin D, I was being deprived of an essential nutrient to my health. I mean, why do you think most factory workers are sickly buggers? It's cos they don't see enough sunlight... get enough vitamin D during Winter.
I therefore propose daylight saving for Winter months to lengthen the days and improve blue collar workers lot... namely their health. Now employers should embrace this idea, cos healtheir workers = healthier production. Politicians/gov't would also embrace Winter daylight saving cos healthier workers and production = increased taxes.
So, given the reasons why, I want you all to lobby your pollies and gov'ts for longer Winter's days,
