I think it should be lowered because of the fact that the government says you're mature enough to make life-altering decisions such as joining the military. Many people don't picture themselves going to war but it's a possibility. You're apparently mature enough to move out of your parents' house and are legally an adult. You can enter into contracts and have to pay the consequences if you break one. If more parents let their kids start drinking at a younger age and teach them about drinking it won't be as bad. Sure if you lower there will be more alcohol-related accidents in the 18-20 year old category but that's always a given.
I personally think that alcohol should be illegal (yes, I know we went tried the whole making alcohol illegal thing before and it didn't work out, but that's beside my point). If alcohol is so dangerous and deadly in so many ways, why is it legal where drugs such as cocaine, marijuana and herion are illegal and certainly just as horrible. I wouldn't mind it so much though, if the people drinking had enough sense to stop before they get to the point where it poses a hazard to themselves and others.
Alcohol just as dangerous as herion hahaha
