End The Crash Right Now!

Since we've all gotten pretty comfortable with the idea that the government will have a big role to play in all this, and our world is getting turned upside down anyway, why not some really immediate action: start daylight savings time now. Like, right now. Now now. This second. That'll make it just about 4:20--a famously good time to take a break--and will give the market just ten more minutes of freefall for the day.

PS: Oh, duh. The market closes at 4:00, not 4:30. So my plea to start daylight savings time was already late.
