The US, Myanmar, and Liberia are the only nations in the world that don't use the Metric System. It is time we use the system everyone has been using for years. This would make it easier to understand measurements in other countries as well as make it easier to share information globally.

I think we should change to the metric system because it would be easier for everyone.
The United States should convert to the Metric System.

I think we should change to the metric system because it would be easier for everyone.  It would be easier to move out of the United States because you know the measurements, and when you travel to different countries, it would also be easier to understand road signs.  The only problem is that if we just switch to the metric system, people would be at a disadvantage because all the road signs would change.  Maybe integrating the system slowly is the best idea.
