I think the metric system would have been fine if it had been implemented prior to 1785. Once our country decided to divide the land using the English system it was too late to switch to the metric. A Section of land is one square mile, and there is no way to redo millions of deeds into oddball metric numbers. Because of that, it was all but impossible to truly implement the metric system. The most we could have done was to implement a confusing hybrid of the two. I think whatever advantages the metric system would have brought us were outweighed by the disadvantages. Apparently most Americans agree with me as we have resisted every attempt to force it upon us. 
All the labor of man is for his mouth, and yet the appetite is not filled.
