Reasons For Keeping the Drinking Age 21:
1) Young people are not yet intelligent enough or responsible enough to handle alcohol until they’re 21.2) Drinking is a privilege that must be earned and you have not earned it until you are 21.3) The law is working just fine as it is and there is no reason to change it4) There is nothing wrong with all Americans waiting until their 21st birthday to consume their first drink.5) That’s just the way it should be.[The National Minimum Drinking Age Act of 1984 (Title 23 U.S.C. §158) was passed on July 17, 1984 by the United States Congress requiring all states to legislate and enforce the age of 21 years as a minimum age for purchasing and publicly possessing alcoholic beverages. Millions now believe this Act should be overturned and the legal drinking age should be 18.]
