I can't wait to start taking some of this crap apart.
I’m with you, assuming you are in earnest.
What kills me about both pro and con in this debate is the belief that setting the drinking age at 21 means 18, 19, 20 year olds aren’t drinking. How naive do you have to be to believe that?
Even college presidents, who’ve seen a drunken student or two, admit that all the 21 law does is drive parties underground, where the booze flows like water, drinking games are prevalent, etc. etc.
Social drinking is part of socialization i.e. maturation. Even though bars aren’t libraries, there still is enough overt and/or subtle social pressure to avoid getting completely blotto. Kids are never exposed to the concept of one or two drinks before dinner, to relax after work etc. so their only conception of alcohol is bacchanalia.
This is what the 21 crowd, including MADD and other cryptoprohibitionists either don’t see because of their agenda or refusal to face the truth.
Hopefully - yes
