How is physics taught in the US?

But yeah we use metric for sciences. It would take generations for the U.S. to convert to Metric. I guess people are just too damned lazy to do so... It's not a major issue to politicians...
It is to engineers and construction workers. Bolts and drill bits and pomegranate are all measured with inches.

That's the real difficulty in converting. Trying to find a 0.635 cm diameter washer? No thanks.
