I like this question obviously because i'm 17, but it pertains to so many other people. Before you deny this idea just keep in mind that places like England, Ireland, and pretty much everywhere in Europe is this way. Now to my argument when your 18, you are considered an adult. You can vote, enlist in the army, get healthcare, etc. So why do you have to be 21 when you drink? Also, when your 18 you more than likely are going to college, and i know as well as you do that drinking happens, cause that's what happens in college. But you don't hear much about widespread under age drinking in the news from colleges. why is this? we know it happens, but why isn't it being stopped? I don't know. I overall think that the US should lower the drinking age, if i can serve my country at 18 i should be able to drink in my country at 18.
