Why Don’t They Weigh It In Pounds? [VIDEO]

The answer from a listener is 2.2 pounds in a kilo.  I just assumed kilos were massive in size. When one does the math it kind of makes the drug busts we hear about sound less massive. Police use metric.  Hospitals do too.  Who else does?  Remember back in the day when the U.S. was going to switch to the metric system to be uniform with the rest of the world? Never happened in everyday things.
Oh my, I just did the math to figure out how much I weigh in kilos.  Multiply by 2.2, correct? Now I'm very very happy we never made the switch!
