I hate it, don't see any benefit or reason for the change. Schools can change their start time so the little children don't have to walk in the scary darkness. Analog clocks are easy to adjust but some digital ones are a pain to reset. The health studies should be shared widely but most sheeple will never read them. It's two AM in my zone.
People who live in rural areas would have little or no need for this. Think of driving ten or fifty miles on a two lane road to go to the store or visit a friend. I have stood in the middle of a road for twenty minutes eating a sandwich and didn't see a car or truck.

Gunsmoke is still aired on TV where I live and my grandparents emigrated from Sweden and Czechoslovakia. One became a bank vice president in Iron Mountain Michigan, the other worked building cars for Nash Motors in Kenosha, Wisconsin.

Great. Now where will all the cheap Christmas junk come from? Automakers are salivating over the Chinese market, their consumer economy is booming and western companies are eager to get a piece of the action.
I worked rotating shifts and slept four hours at a time. I was a mental mess and could barely function. Making a meal was a chore. When I was at work I slept on the table in the lunch room. At home I could not sleep and would walk around my neighborhood in the middle of the night getting the attention of the local sheriff deputies. I was 50 meters from my house and being questioned like I was a criminal. At last I was so fatigued that I collapsed in bed, asleep.
People can't afford to buy a house but may afford a car. The media has so many advert's about auto leasing. Put $5000 down and $400 per month then after 5 years you got nothing.
I met a couple who were camp hosts. They received a free spot in the camp, had electricity and had access to showers and flush toilets. There was a small store you could walk to that had food, ice, milk, beer, and a post office that was open on Saturday. We became friends and they would save my favorite camp site for me and my sons.
They did minor mtnce. like picking up litter and cleaning the restrooms.
The camp is at 5000 feet elevation and received some snow, they were prepared to spend a few days in their RV.
My tap water tasted fishy or like warm lake water during the summer. There are taste and odor compounds that are nearly impossible to remove with chlorine or potassium permangamate. The water quality has improved recently so they must have found some improvement in the treatment process.
I drove by a Crystal Geyser bottling plant in California. "Bottled at the source" in the Sierra Nevada mountains. Their big use of local water must affect the local streams, rivers, and wildlife.
I was feeding a ground squirrel p-nuts when I was camping. He would take them out of the shell and pack the nuts in his cheeks until both sides were full. He ran to his burro under a tree branch and then returned for more. This went on for 30 minutes.
Some mission scientists were cheering and others crying when the final signal was lost, confirming the end of the craft and mission. It was launched in 1997!

There was a live piece of ammo in my neighbors garage when I was six years old. It was about 50 mm in diameter and I picked it up to look at it. I found a live round in the desert near a former aircraft firing range that I took and soaked in water for two days, then wrapped in wet paper and put in the trash.
Me and my dad found some blasting caps in an abandoned trailer at the Hauser geode beds, we threw one into our campfire and it blew all the wood 2-3 feet away. He threw them into San Diego bay on his way to work on a ferry.
The race to the bottom.
Every business or person in the food chain will see reduced wages or income. Stuff costs money. Some people don't see the increase in the cost of living. A five percent yearly increase in prices is supposed to be good for the economy.
There is no privacy, everything you do is tracked. If you live in a cabin in the woods you will be known by the mail you receive or the web sites you visit. I bought some things from a web store and then got ads from sites offering similar items.
There was a time when you could select the options you wanted. My dad ordered a truck with the engine, clutch, transmission, and suspension he wanted. Today you must buy a package that has all the crap the mfgr. adds. Crapware, I've read that term somewhere before....
The air pollution in China is terrible. Any images I've seen show the background disappearing in a haze. You can't see the water or other problems with contaminated soil or crops.

TL,DR.
The extraction of gold and diamonds is controlled to maintain an artificial scarcity that keeps prices high.
Yeah, I wanna visit the super spy agency's site. Oh wait, they already know me. I am tquasar.

What if my house is a shed and my horse lives in my house? Where would the hay delivery go?
