As if it will matter at all. People will drink even when they are not at the proper age. I personally think these laws are just a waste. I don't know how it's like everywhere else, but where I am (Canada), a lot start drinking from the age of 12, and no one cares (until they get in a car and run over someone or crash).
"Feed me."
Also our driving age is 16 ;DOriginally Posted by Jessweeee♪
I'm only sixteen, I have no intentions of drinking ever, and I live in the US so this doesn't bother me much >.>
The drinking age in Mexico is just 18 so around where I live people between 18 and 21 go there to have fun
But I don't really care, I don't drink, so... yeah
Need...
Some places like Spar (the classy way to buy alcohol, kids) seem to be confused over the alcohol laws as it is. At least two shops I've been to have said you have to be 21 to buy alcohol there, while most seem to be fine with the 18 rule. I think the shops have gotten that whole "challenge 21" thing mixed up, as that states shop attendants should ask for proof of age if you look under 21.
In terms of health, it's a good idea in principle, but I seriously doubt it would have any positive applications. Sadly, people will manage to get hold of cigarettes/alcohol no matter what the age limit put on them and I'm sure they'll find a way around it. I don't drink a lot, but I'm sure it would certainly aggravate a lot of my friends and universities bars around the country! I say 'nay.' I doubt they'd get it passed though.

We'll be old enough to marry, make babies, smoke, drive... and everything ELSE. But not to drink? Stoopid imo.
But, as everyone has said... people will acquire the things they want some way.
I want to drink and drive legally. Boo @ This.
In theory (but probably not in practice) this would kill the vast majority of student drinking... but hey, I don't care much now because a) I'm 22 and b) I rarely ever drink.
i think raising the drinking age only supports underage drinking.
You could make a tidy profit and/or avoid getting beaten up by teenagers on a Friday night by buying alcohol for them.

21 is the C-c-c-combo BREAKER!
The only Americans that support this law are those that are at least 21 years of age.
You say that like people under 21 have a voice.The only Americans that support this law are those that are at least 21 years of age.
