  • The United States is one of three nations (the others being Liberia and Burma) that have not adopted the metric system as their official system of weights and measures. U.S. customary units are widely used on consumer products and in industrial manufacturing.

    (It’s not standard in the U.S.,  Burma, and Liberia)
    2) It’s easier to make conversions
    (You just move the decimal point right and left)
    3) Teaching two measurement systems to children is confusing
    4) It’s the language of science
    5) It’s the language of medicine ( doctors and nurses use to prescribe medicine)
