It's time to change America!
Due to the benefits of metric system, America should switch to the metric system.
The world favors the metric systemMost of the world uses the metric system and 95% of the world uses the system. If one was to travel to another country from here, they will need to learn the metric system before traveling.
It is already used for scientific standardsSince most countries use the metric system, scientists need to use the metric system to compare their ideas to others. If scientists don't use the metric system, they can't prove that their ideas are correct. As the system is already used in America, people who have experience with science, will not have a hard time switching.

It is easier to convert within the metric system measurementsOur customary system goes by different numbers on changing to different units. The metric system is much simpler, because each unit goes simply by tens. This makes the metric system much easier to understand than the customary sytem
Teaching both systems can be quite confusing to childrenMany children have a hard time understanding the customary system. If children will need to learn both, they will have a harder time understanding either one of the systems. There is also the possibility that children will mix the two measurements.
