Studies have proven permanent DST is more beneficial than permanent standard time, both on mental health and on traffic accidents. It getting darker earlier in the day tends to result in worse mental health, since it getting dark earlier, particularly immediately when people are getting out of work, tends to be worse for depression. It was also found that it getting dark when people are driving home, after being tired from work, results in more traffic accidents than if it's dark when they're driving to work.
Admittedly Im viewing this selfishly and only considering my likes/dislikes. I hate in the summer time it being light out until 2200. Id much rather have it dark at 2100. I work 2nd shift so I always drive home in the dark but on my off days I hate it being light so late. I dont like to watch movies until its dark and I prefer it dark earlier.
I love in the winter when its pitch dark at 1700. Makes for great tv time. I dont care about morning time because I sleep it until like 1000 every day.
