There was a time before light became easier to produce in early American agrarian when Daylight Saving Time made sense.

No.

It never made sense and the "agrarians" all hate the stupid system that is so dumb only a government academic could come up with it.

Set the clocks and be done with it you nitwits.

Yep, it’s not like “you get an extra hour of daylight”.

“There’s only so many hours in a day” and whenever I’ve been self employed, I hardly paid attention to the clock. I tend to wake up at daybreak or shortly before and I go to bed when I’m tired.

Seems nothing is standard anymore.

It never had anything to do with an agrarian society either.

The US first implemented it in 1918. Then got rid of it 7 months later. It was the farmers who wanted to get rid of it.

It did not become a standard until 1966.
