Maybe!. The laws should definitely be re-evaluated!. Harsher laws don't necessarily mean better results for society especially when it comes to little things!. It seems very hypocritical of us to say its okay to send an 18 year old off to fight and kill and potentially die in war, but refuse him or her the right to have a beer!. And countries with lower drinking ages have typically had fewer problems with binge drinking!. Of course, that could just be a cultural thing and lowering the drinking age certainly wouldn't fix that problem immediately!. Www@FoodAQ@Com
no, i think its too late to lower the drinking age, if we started with 18 i think there would be far less problems, less drrunk driving!.!. look at europre, all of their drinking ages are 18 or lower, and they have no problems!.!. but if it was lowered all the sudden than everyone would go out and buy even more alchol , causing more DD , and etc!.!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
yes!.
kids in high school are going to drink no matter what the age is!. when the drinking age is 21 and it is illegal for them to do so, it causes kids to make terrible decisions, binge drink, and try to sneak back home driving drunk!. in other nations where drinking is more culturally acceptable, kids grow up respecting and having a healthy relationship with alcohol and are less likely to abuse it!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Some states are considering 25 or older in clubs and restaurants and retail outlets!. Lets leave it alone and not ruin it for the 21 year olds!. Lowering the age is not a good idea in my view!. Kids find a way to drink without baiting them into it!. 21 is fair and tested over considerable time!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
No!. This world is messed up as it is!. I don't need some teen to crash into my car while driving because the the drinking age was brought down to 18!. Teens are still young and don't know any better!. Trust me, 21 and over they are more mature!. Sadly, that isn't the case sometimes!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
I feel that if you are able to buy cigarettes, get married, vote and join the military!.!.!.at the wonderful age of 18!. Then you should be able to drink at 18!.
Maybe teens won't sneak out of the house to hang out on the streets or go to a house party to drink!. **Keep them home and safe!! Www@FoodAQ@Com

no because then more college students and held back high school students would cuase more drunk driving, binge drinking, and illegal drinking among teens!.
So its not a good idea!.
I think the drinking age should be raised to 25 or 30Www@FoodAQ@Com
