In a good system One cubic meter of water (densisty 1) whould equel one liter, whitch whould also equel one gram (based on earth gravity). I whould also make newton the same or a multiple of gram.

No, it used to be, but you know a better system, so if you don't use it it's entirely your stupid Amerikkkan freedom defending Big Mac sized route 66 driving NASCAR watching fault.
You are an idiot - "Based on Earth gravity" - the whole point of mass is that it's independent of the gravitational force. What you're thinking of is WEIGHT, and seriously, you can't divide by 10? Metric is so easy oh my god, you fail at life.

I remember last year in my science class, we were reviewing the metric system at the beginning of the year.
I actually heard a couple people go "God this is so stupid, metric is dumb, why can't we just uses inches?"
I wanted to stab her in the ovaries :(

You can't define mass in terms of the force it applies because gravity is not constant across the surface of earth to any appreciable precision.

9.81m/s/s is appreciably precise enough across the surface of the earth, but no ,you can't define mass in terms of force it applies.
