Are you waiting for the end of the time change? Elon Musk is on the spot, here is what he intends to do

Are you waiting for the end of the time change

Are you a change of time? So you are like Elon Musk who already offers to seize the file. He already offers something.

It is a ritual to which all Europeans and the French have used since the 1970s: the change of time occurs each year, in the spring and in the fall. And the Americans, like Canadians, also bend on it. But maybe not for a very long time. It must be said that his abolition has a fervent defender: Elon Musk. The billionaire already has several said that he found this mechanism ineffective and exceeded.

The eccentric entrepreneur, now at the head of the Department of Government Effectiveness, has expressed his intention to take charge. First by demonstrating his position on the subject, on X. A few weeks ago, Musk publicly reacted to a survey posted on its network offering to delete summer time. More than 81% of people who participated in the survey said they wanted it to disappear. And Elon Musk welcomed it: “It looks like people want to abolish these boring time changes!” His friend of the Department of Government Effectiveness, Vivek Ramaswamy, abounded: “It is ineffective and easy to change”.

On March 5, Elon Musk went further and even seriously considered the hypothesis that the time change was definitively abandoned, quickly. On X, he himself asked the question, by putting an evolution on the table. “If the time change is canceled, do you prefer to stay at an hour later or earlier?”, He questioned. That more than 1.3 million people have answered him is not the most remarkable. Above all, it is necessary to remember the fact that the man charged by the American president to make people’s lives easier – and to drastically reduce federal budgets – has taken over the subject.

And Elon Musk will not stop at this simple proposal. Donald Trump himself, during his presidential campaign to access his second mandate, announced his intention to end the semi-annual changes of time quickly after his return to power. He had declared at the end of 2024 on his Truth Social platform that summer time was “impractical and very expensive for the country”. He later repeated that the abolition of this mechanism would simplify the lives of citizens and achieve savings.

However, Elon Musk and Donald Trump will have to convince all of the Republicans and all grant their violins. The Conservative Party had launched a bill a few months ago in order to make the summer time permanent – and not winter time. The measure, adopted unanimously in the Senate, was not validated by the other Congress Chamber. Otherwise the end of the time change would already be a reality (illustration image: Grok IA, artistic view).
