The US is not really "wealthy", check their books. They spend a lot though.
Japan has been in a recession since the late eighties, and still are not out of it.
Britain has done well, but so has Germany or Canada, and they use the metric system. Not really sure what your point is?
This is what you have to know, most business is conducted using the metric system, and most sciences use it, if not all.
The Imperial system is an archaic system, which is hard to understand and is not related.
