In the US it’d be attacked as un-American and as part of the “culture wars” the US right wing seem to imagine. The government would be attacked for taking away “freedom units”.
Electoral reform with proportional representation would be better priority so government can reflect the majority, and not the noisy fringes.
I fully agree, but I think it is time to metricate on an individual level. Just live your life as metric as possible. Even in America life is easier using meters when you get a say even when you’re the only one doing it. We’re already halfway metric as is.
There’s mass confusion now. It’s why industry by industry is voluntarily metricating. Most famously American aerospace used US Customary until a conversion error crashed a Mars mission.
There would be mass confusion if the US went metric.
Seemed to work fine everywhere else.
