In the US, the drinking age is 21. If you don't like it, you can always try to get the law changed. However, the evidence is pretty strong that a higher drinking age does cut down on traffic deaths.

I understand what you are saying but
I think
driving ( there is too much traffic now on the roads for it to be safe for the young to drive )
drinking
credit cards
tattoo's
smoking ( never )
sex ( marriage or an adult )
should all be 21

Dumb laws exist everywhere. I agree, it sould be one or the other!
Check this out ... In Milwaukee, WI it is illegal to spit in a public place (to the best of my understanding) and it carries an (approx) fine of $70 (US). However, there is no law against 'tossing one's cookies' in a public place! Which is more gross?
Go figure!

Ummm... I think I know what you're trying to say...and i guess i agree because they might as well make it all 18 or 19.
Government is stupid like that.

Yea, also the consent to have sex is 14, so why not let you all drink and get drunk and have sex.
