How to Convert USA to 100% Metric System

First, I want to thank Hawaii for already have 100% gone Metric SI, thank you feel standing up and do the right thing! Second, Oregon is in now in the process of passing bill for 100% Metrication, hope of thier success.

We can easily switch to the Metric System and drop the Antiquated American Imperial System that no one on Earth uses, and do it in just TWELVE short years, in Four - Three Year Steps....

There are 6.4 billion SI users vs .3 billion American Imperial users.

First Three Years...

In the first three years we would only require all States that are touching the boarders of our neighboring countries - Canada and Mexico, to convert to the Metric System. That is only 15 States, we would give them three years to switch over.

I thought from an historic perspective you might like to read the inside story of why President Reagan abolished the U.S. Metric Board. It was NOT a national outcry against the metric system by a majority of the public and business community. As this well respected and highly honored writer describes it only took one person (the writer) with a close friend in the White House to derail the U.S. Board move to metric even though Congress spent years studying the issue and had established the metric board only 6 years earlier.

Second Three Years....

In the next three years, the 18 states that are touching the borders of the first step would be required to convert to the Metric System....

Did you know for the last Thirty-five years Congress have been forcing you to purchase and use two sets of incompatible tools? Do you think that is right? You could have only one set and saved/spent your money on other things.

Third Three Years...

In the third step, there will be 11 states that again are touching the last step borders to convert to the Metric System....

Why do American businesses have shelves full of two incompatible hardware and tools in stock/inventory, when they really only need one. Is that free trade competitive? Why do we need two measurement systems, when the World only uses one, SI, the Metric System.

The Forth and Last Three Years...

In the last three years, six states, all in the lower South East States, would be required to switch to the Metric System, and The USA would finally be able to join the World in the Twenty-First Century.

Changing road signs is usually a simple one-day activity when it is well planned and well done. Examples are abundant. Australia, New Zealand, and South Africa changed all of their signs in a single day back in the 1970s.

In Australia's case they placed new metric signs all around the country for several months before the changeover day (1974 July 1) but left them covered with jute sacks. Come changeover day (it was a Sunday) they uncovered the metric signs and removed the old pre-metric signs. The public quickly and easily became accustomed to the new signs – probably by about Wednesday – and the prophets of doom who had predicted mayhem and murder on Australian roads were proved to be totally wrong; if anything accidents went down as drivers were temporarily more cautious.

The most recent change to all metric signs was in Ireland and they, too, did their road signs changeover in a single day.
