Agreed. Either pick standard time or go one hour ahead and have the clocks stay there. I prefer standard time but if we go either way and it stays that way, I’m all for it.

There are probably several reasons for it, but I remember two in particular. One had to do with not sending Elenetary School kids and them being in the dark when travelling either to or from school.
The second one had to do with energy savings, overall.
Now, both of those would not be a fact -- if only -- people themselves, all businesses, schools and government offices and so on -- all adjusted their starting times at different times of the year, and simply "go with the sun".
BUT, people and businesses and schools don't do that, so the government simply changes the clocks across the board -- which accomplishes the same thing as people doing it themselves, except that they won't... LOL ...
