Absolutely! It is ridiculous that it is fully dark at 4PM in the winter where I live, yet it doesn't get dark until 10 PM in the summer. We could at least do away with some of the gap by eliminating the artificial difference by going on daylight saving time permanently.

My grandmother used to say Daylight Savings Time was like cutting the bottom off of a blanket and sewing it to the top. Then later taking it off and sewing back on the bottom again. A rather pointless exercise, if you ask me! I prefer standard time and would rather have the extra hour of daylight in the evening rather than coming home from work well after dark...

Daylight Savings was invented to increase usage of natural daylight and to conserve energy. I personally like the extra hour I get every fall.

I like the light to last longer into evening hours ..... so I would actually prefer if they made a 2 or 3 hour adjustment, then just leave it at that time permanently

I don't see how that would help trolls. Can you give me one good reason how that would help trolls? And what part of the country are you talking about?
