They just don't care I guess and I heard that they leant both the imperial and metric system at school.

We're too stubborn and feel a need to be different. They tried to convert the US over to the metric system in the 70's but we wholeheartedly rejected it and eventually the government gave up and let us keep using our system lmao

I think i once heard that it would be to expensive to change and that it would cause chaos in school/work places.

because it would be too expensive to change and adapt all the material of the US companies

Both are taught in schools in the U.S.

Kids who won't eat their peas teas.

I don't think it really matters tbh.

A lot would have to change and we're used to it. Why change something that works fine

Imperial is so illogical and difficult
They should switch metric is >>

Cuz we're stupid

US remains unbothered

You learn both in the US but metric is used for science stuff while imperial is used for everyday things

Same in Canada actually.
We use pounds for weight and retain feet for things like height, all else is metric.

The US tried and it was a massive fail.

There's a reason why things are so inconsistent. Like soda bottles being measured in liters and not gallons. Now it's used in science and math along with related fields. For every day use people use imperial.

Honestly form high school on I stopped using it, and only use the metric. I was also a science major though lol

I forgot most it now

Because they're a century late

Now, seriously. The metric system is much simpler.

this. Not to mention we'd be changing a hell of a lot of things, how we measure our heights, the mile markers/how we read them, it would take generations

We literally learn both Imperial is just way more prominent

This Known metric since I was in elementary school

We know both. Imperial is more prominent in our every day lives, while the metric system is more prominent for science and math. We often convert from one to the other, but it really is no big deal. Nothing to complain about.
