Lower the required age to purchase and consume alcohol from 21 to 18 nationwide

Created by M.B. on September 26, 2011

The National Minimum Drinking Age Act of 1984 is unconstitutional and morally wrong.As Americans we are entitles to Life,Liberty,The Persuit of Happiness,etc,for some the pursuit of happiness might include alcohol.American citizens 18 or over should be able to drink if they want.It breaches the age of majority.At what point are you considered a responsible adult?18?or 21?It is a mixed message.An adult 18 years of age or over can go to war,vote,smoke cigarettes,star in a sexually explicit film,drive a car,own a gun,etc,but they are not allowed to drink.This is a breach of personal liberties.People should be able to put whatever they want into their own bodies so long as they don't drive under the influence and don't hurt anyone else.Adults should be treated as the adults that they are.
