It's use is heavily advocated by liberals, who claim that it is more rational. According to conservative political commentator [[Ann Coulter]], "...an inch is the width of a man's thumb, a foot the length of his foot, a yard the length of his belt. That's easy to visualize. How do you visualize 147.2 centimeters?".<ref>Many American [[public schools]] have also begun brainwashing students in this regard to believe that the metric system is "better".
