New Political Debate: Drinking Age

[Typhoid]

Why is there no "19"?
Blasphemy.

Anyways, I think 19 is the pefect age to have it be legal. It works pretty damn fine here in BC, and if you think about it - it makes sense.


18, I think is too early. Why? Kids can still be in highschool when they're 18 - if their birthday falls in the first few months, and I think that could make things pretty tragic for a few people.

I don't see why you're able to pick the leader of your country when you're 18 (or in some cases younger) yet your country doesn't allowe you to consume alcohol for another 3 years after that.

I'm a firm believer in "The sooner you drink, the sooner it gets out of your system". I'm 21 now, and I'm pretty much fed up with bars and clubs because I've been to them for the past 2 years. And there are adults in the US who can just legally go to them now, and might not get sick of them until their mid-20's.

I think having the age at 21 is really ridiculous in the first place. What's so significant about 21? You're already an adult, you're already in University or College, you're already possibly living on your own, so why can't you go to a bar if you want to?

Silly, silly laws.
