not even close to the same logic. Drinking makes one irrational and out of touch with every day life. But perhaps you love the idea of a bunch of young drinkers wondering around the roads of your community. Since teen agers have the impulse control of a gnat I don’t want anything to interfer with the few brain cells actually being used to say no

You may like the Nanny state. I don't. I grew up when 18 was the legal drinking age.

Let's stop drafting 18 year olds into the military and you might have a point. People who don't go to college must find jobs and take on adult responsibilities. Nothing magic happens when you go from age 20 to 21.

People must take responsibility for their actions. That applies to teenagers and adults--whatever age society decides that happens. How much government control will you accept to feel "secure?"
