It is time for the U.S. to adopt a drinking policy that resembles that of Europe. With the lowered drinking age there are three benefits that will be sown: 1. The creation of a more accessible music scene for ages 18 to 20 who as of now miss out on many opportunities to hear and support music, as well as play in places that serve alcohol: 2. A change in the drinking culture of America, as the lowered drinking age increases the emphasis on social drinking over binge drinking, as no illicit rebellious feelings will accompany the legal festivities: 3. An increase in revenue for keystone corporations that will overall stimulate the economy and the tax revenues.
