How the sunrise and sunset times would be affected by abolishing daylight saving time in the USA. Would you prefer to keep it or drop it?

So, now the tired drivers are driving to work in the dark. I don't see any solution making a real difference. There's less day in the winter. Any solution at all will piss off 3/4s of the population.
Seems like the only real solution is shortened work days.
There's usually 8 hours of sunlight during the day on the shortest day of the year, a bit more or less depending on latitude, but not by a lot. Make those 8 hours 9-5. Congrats, you've solved the problem, the average day will have a bit to a lot of light before and after the standard work day.
