    The U.S. already uses the metric system in strategic areas like the military, space exploration and scientific research.

    It would be quite cost prohibitive to replace all the road signs so we’re keeping the imperial system for day to day stuff.

      It’s too bad they took away all the dual marked road signs when that dick Reagan killed the conversion to metric.
