Should America switch to the Metric system?

The thing is, is that the United States, Myanmar, and Liberia are the only countries in the whole world that still use the "English system". That's it, just three countries. Myanmar is to the east of India and Liberia is on the western coast of Africa, and of course United States right between the North Atlantic Ocean and North Pacific Ocean.On the other hand there is the more widely used Metric system, it is more widely used because it is used by every other country besides the 3 that uses the English system. So why is the U.S. one of the biggest and most popular countries in the world not up-to-date with everyone one else? There are many reasons why the U.S. should switch to the metric system. some of them include that most of scientists world wide use the metric system and things could be lost in the confusing conversions between the two different systems.

In this video Microsoft uses civilian dressed actors to show that “there’s a solder in all of us”. This is an aired commercial for their new game Call of Duty: Black Opps. In it there are civilians using realistic weapons with explosion going off in a realist battle scenario. What has changed in the past 6 years that would allow Microsoft to air a commercial that if in 2005 would be banned?
