Daylight Savings Time becoming permanent?

I hate the switching of clocks, so I would like it to end. I'm not sure if I'd rather be permanently one hour forward or one hour backward. Can we split the difference and adjust by 30 minutes?
 
I, personally, prefer keeping the clocks set where they are now especially since this is where they are for the majority of the year.

Another thing I like about permanent "daylight savings" is, living on the eastern edge of the Pacific time zone, having the daylight later on the clock during winter. Currently, when we are on standard time, when the sun sets in December, the clock reads 4:00 pm. Like most people, I'm still at work. With the clocks set an hour ahead, most people will be getting off of work while there is still a bit of daylight left. I live north of the 46th parallel so, from late November to mid January, there's less than 9 hours of daylight and no jockeying of clocks is going to do anything about it. But for me, it's mentally easier when I'm anticipating sunrise as my day is starting rather than staying at work past sunset.
 
I am retired but I agree with abcaines. 100%
I live 90 minutes south of 45° and also have very short winter daylight.
Yesterday it was 10pm and still light outside. I like that.
I vote for leaving the clock as it is right now.
