The sun don't set at 9 pm or 10 pm where I live. And those are days only in June and July in some far north states. So for 83% of the year when the sun don't set at 9 pm or 10 pm in the far north states or the 100% of the year when the sun don't set in the other states at 9 pm or 10 pm, then the additional hour of sun in the latter part of the day is welcome.

It really doesn't matter. The issue was settled decades ago. With the exception of farmers, Daylight time is wildly popular with the unwashed.

Daylight time is going nowhere. In fact, in areas that are on the east border of a time zone, they would love to be on the west side of the time zone since they have another - hour!

This considerations proves it isn’t a done deal. DST is NOT wildly popular, most people bitch about it for weeks before and after. And with good reason, it’s stupid. It’s a stupid idea, enforced by a stupid government, and its only real purpose is to remind people who is in charge. You’ll set your clock how they say citizen.
