Senor, you are erroneously conflating two different pheomena, namely laws of gravity and Newton's first law. They are not necessarily connected. If you try to connect the three small scale forces to the one metric large scale force you will end up with problems. This is the current problem haunting modern physicists, in fact. If we try to take the approach you wish to take, we end up failing rather miserably. It seems that we don't quite have it together yet. Someday we might.

Hanak's nonsense, though, is out in left field.
