The modern metric system is a comprehensive, related, easy to use measurement system used worldwide in trade, commerce and science. We could increase our exports if we manufactured and sold using the metric system. 96% of the World population lives outside the US. We would save time professionally and personally because the units are related and easy to use. Moving a decimal place gives a different unit. We would dispense with numerous unneeded non related items used in manufacture including only having to buy one set of tools. Farmers would benefit with simpler application of fertilizer and water. After converting, most wonder why they hadn't been doing this before. The sooner and quicker we do this, the quicker we reap the benefits. The increase in exports alone would be enormous.
