Yeah people are always happier as alcoholics?! Sorry but I for one have always felt that if you are old enough to die for your country at 18 that you are old enough to drink. Yeah I have always bought alcohol for my friends that were underage before and still do on occasion, but I personally feel the age limit should be kept at 21. Yeah ok so most kids are going to drink anyway.... blah blah blah....at least tho they can learn if and when they get nailed for it that it is not the coolest thing in the world. My brother started drinking hardcore for parties at about 17 or 18 and he is already an alcoholic and has 3 DUI's at 22yrs old. I started drinking long before that and have never had a dui and am far from an alcoholic, but I also learned to control myself and my limits. I know this has potential to start a huge debate in here, but basically it is just something I feel wrather personal about being as I have spent time in the military and on college campuses and different countries getting wasted. Do I feel 18yr olds should be able to drink? Not all of them, but then again I feel the same about a lot of 21yr olds too. I just know that insurance rates and accidents began to drop by a good margin in LA when they changed the law and that was by far a good thing.Originally posted by Corsica its cause Canada is smart. they figure we gona drink enways so whynot just let us 'eh? i think US just needs to make everything legal @ 18 and be donewith it. People wouldn't be as bad, alot happier, and life would be more interesting.
