Tictac has a point there.
We could stick to the dollar system
.01, .05, .10, .25, .50, 1, 5, 10, etc

We can't just change it all. It'd cost too much. More than it's worth. In the trillions.

We can't change to metric now. It's too far gone. To change only change roadside signs would cost trillions of dollars.

Out of 243 countries, 240 are non-metric. So how can you say the metric system is crap when 99% of the world's countries use it?

In the end if 99% of countries uses metric, it is costing money NOT to use metric. And not using metric leads to accidents, too. Accidents already have happened because of conversion problems.

One of my cousins from America once got stopped for speeding in Canada, because they thought that we used the Imperial system.

metric is teh sux. I especially couldnt get used to celsius. the only metric I am any bit familiar is grams and liters. (and for science class when I'm stuck with it...stupid universal measurements!)
