Do We Really Need Daylight Savings Time?

11/07/10 | by Ethnic Embrace [mail] | Categories: International, What's to Know, Culture, Horoscope, Education, Opinions

I did my research on day light savings time because I was truly interested in learning why we change our times twice a year. Is it that the stars really align on those days just changing times? Is it because it gets darker earlier and so it just makes sense? Or is it all a capitalist ploy to maintain the flow of events? You guessed it!

So, now I'm a little confused when understanding real time and how to determine time and space based on the stars. Have we gotten so far away from real time because of the varying global time shifts? Some countries adjust their times by 20 minutes, some not at all and some have adjusted their times by 2 hours. Who's time are we on and what time is it really?
