One thing to keep in mind is that is not just a US issue.  DST is also observed in other parts of the world.  Given the amount of international business that occurs, it's really a decision that should be made globally so as not to upset the already challenging time zone differences further.

Many doctors say that people drastically underestimate the damage it does to your body while your circadian is out of whack for several days.
