I always understood the drinking age is the way it is because 21 is roughly the agewhen drinking is somehow not overly-detrimental to one's health and the average human body can "take it." Due mostly to body/brain development. But, I could be wrong.
I'd like it to be lowered. But that's for the purely selfish reason of being 20 and pissed that I can't get retarded drunk without having to orchestrate my fraternity brothers buying me alcohol.
Hey, at least I'm honest.
