"The United States is one of the few countries left in the world who still have not converted to using the Metric System as a standardized system of measurement. Instead of going along with what the rest of the world uses, we stubbornly still adhere to using the imprecise Imperial Unit - despite the fact that practically every other country that we interact with uses Metric.

Why should we convert to using the Metric System? Because it's superior, less convoluted - everything is ordered in units of tens, while the chaotic arrangement of the Imperial System slows things down for us - not only in terms of education, but also businesses, science, foreign relations, and daily life."
(Text from a petition on the White House's website.)


The Imperial (or English) system is archaic, and is a problem in the US. We are too lazy, selfish, and stubborn to change. Common arguments against taking this logical step are that people don't want to have to relearn the metric system (why do we teach this garbage to our kids in the first place?), buy new cars (you wouldn't have to), or pay extra taxes to get the signs changed (again, you wouldn't- plenty of countries have both units on their signs).

Use kg. For science.
