Abstract
There was a big debate on whether or not the minimum drinking age should be lowered. The media gave this debate a lot of attention. It’s not about the age it’s about the decisions they make with alcohol at a very young adult age. I do like the argument if you are old enough to serve our country and die for your country then you should be able to drink at that age. After all the research I have done and retrieved information I have found, they do have a lot of good evidence to keep the age the same way it is.
Lower The Drinking Age? The great debate is rather to lower the drinking age to 18 or keep it at 21. You may think the decision is a lot easier than it should be, but it’s not easy at all. You’re not just dealing with just a number or an age Your dealing with peoples’ lives and what it could do to them and possibly change theirs or somebody else’s. …show more content…
Mainly because then they will most likely be in college and then it will take away the whole being cool about drinking underage concept. It will probably lower the number of college students that are drinking. Not saying it will lower it close to zero but it will at least be around 50%, because most do it because it makes them feel cool. I understand that it is the age where people don’t make the smartest decisions in life. But that’s what brings me to my second reason of why it should be lowered. If you can make the decision and serve your country at the age of 18 and be able to die protecting your country then you should in return be able to do what most people say and “crack open a cold one”. I understand that it is the age where people don’t make the smartest decisions in
