19 states have "no more changing the clocks" laws passed, but aren't allowed to do so without approval of the federal government?

It's pretty obvious you can just do what you want these days, consequences are trivial to non-existent, so why don't we just not change our clocks? (or change them and not change them back, whatever floats your boat)

If you show up to work and all your appointments an hour late for the next 6 months, you'll feel the consequences.

Anyway at 2am on Nov 2nd most of our smart phones & other devices will automatically throw back to 1am unless you adjust your phone settings in defiance.
