Daylight Wasting Time

Today, we fall back one hour. If anyone can give me a convincing argument as to why we do this, I will give them five dollars. To clarify, I'm not against the falling back in October as much as I'm against the springing forward in April, as it causes me to lose an hour of sleep. I don't really see any possible benefit of daylight saving time that wouldn't apply to the whole year. In other words, if daylight saving time does help us, why not abolish it, and make everything start earlier, so we'll always have more sunlight in the afternoon and less in the morning? I know I'm not original in complaining about this, but if everyone complains, why do we still have it?
