Benjamin Franklin first thought of daylight savings because he thought "clocks in France should be reset to allow an extra hour of daylight during waking hours." also so because he thought that "French shopkeepers could save one million francs a year on candles." "He also liked the idea on a personal level, as he lost a lot of daylight by sleeping so late."

It was Benjamin Franklin who first thought of the idea to help French shopkeepers save money on candles but the idea made some Frenchmen angry. He also liked the idea on a personal level because he loved his sleep.

Ben Franklin came up with it so parisians would economize candles. I got this from wikipedia because the button wouldn't work right.

I not 100% sure of this because I couldn't get onto the website, but I think my family talked about it and it was for farmers who had to wake up early so they would have daylight savings so on some mornings they could see.
