Change the legal drinking age to 18. If you can vote and fight for your country you should be able to drink alcohol.

Created by J.T. on August 23, 2013

The age of 21 is such an arbitrary age to allow for drinking, especially when in all other aspects of life 18 is considered to be an adult.
If you can vote in Presidential elections by the age of 18 and go to war, why shouldn't you be able to drink?
If 18 is truly the age we consider individuals adults why do adults 21 and over get different privileges? We shouldn't discriminate with age. As if a 21 year old is wiser or more mature than an 18 year old. If that is how we look at it then there would always be an age group older and wiser than the next.
