Is it Time to End Daylight Saving Time? – Screamin’ Scott

Most people I know dislike the twice-yearly time reset. Many believe that changing the clocks is an old outdated practice from wartime that has more negative than positive results.

According to one study,  7 out of 10 Americans today do not want to change their clocks and think it’s a bad idea. According to another 2022 study, 6 out of 10 Americans would stop fooling with the clock.

New studies show the effects on the heart. Did you know the risk of a stroke is higher just two days after the time change? So why do we still do this two times a year? Sure, this weekend we get an extra hour of sleep, but who takes advantage of that anyway.

The Senate unanimously passed the Sunshine Protection Act, which, if approved by the House and signed by the president, would make daylight saving time permanent. So, in November 2023, daylight saving time would be the new standard time. For all of us, that means later summer sunsets and later sunrises. But as per government red tape, nothing ever seems to get done. So maybe in my lifetime, we could see a chance at being normal to the Sun and Moon. And not mess with the clocks anymore or a Lions Super Bowl, whatever comes first.

Daylight Saving Time 2022: Don't forget to turn your clocks back this weekend

We'll get an extra hour of sleep this weekend, but that means less daylight as we head into the colder months. Daylight saving time begins the first Sunday in November. On Nov. 6 at 2 a.m., turn your clocks back to 1 a.m.

Michigan's 10 Fastest-Growing Cities

Michigan is already the 10th most populated state in the U.S., and now, certain cities in the Mitten are growing. The latest Census data shows that 10 Michigan cities are growing at a faster rate than any others, so if you’re looking to start a small business or find a job, these places might be a good bet.

HomeSnacks.com has put together a list of the 10 fastest growing cities in Michigan for 2022, according to the most recent census data. “To figure out which cities are growing the most, we simply had to look at the growth rates for cities sine the beginning of the decade, according to the American Community Survey put out by the census every year,” they stated. Specifically, they looked at current population, population in 2010 and the growth rate from 2010 to now using the latest available data, which came out in December 2018.

They ranked all 148 Michigan cities with a population more 5,000 people from highest growth rate to lowest. Seeing that 5,000 was the bottom number, this study is very comprehensive, because it mixes large and smaller cities. “The city with the highest growth rate during this time was crowned the fastest growing city in the Wolverine State,” they state.

Read on for the 10 fastest growing cities in Michigan for 2022. I’m familiar with quite a few of these towns, and it’s nice to see them getting some recognition. It’s worth nothing that one of the most wealthiest areas in the state is on this list, too, in East Grand Rapids. If your town is on the list, think of it as good thing, because it means business is booming, even if things are getting a bit more crowded and built up.
