They tried that for a year or two in the 70s. Everyone hated it.

Who is "they"? Also, most of the world doesn't have DST and they seem to be doing okay.

The US at least I think some of Europe was involved, and that's what I was saying. We tried full time DST and it doesn't work.

To clarify, they hated it enough to change it back to switching twice a year.
