There are to many alcohol related accidents the way it is and i believe lowering it to 18 will just cause an increase. A drinking age of 18 would include some high school seniors which will only cause an increase in procurring. It's just a bad idea all around. Why do we want our youth to grow up so quickly?

18 isnt responsible or mature enough, this country already has enough problems with underage drinking and alcoholism

That is one of the most cited, and most without merit arguments. You are telling me that an 18year old is responsible and mature enough to enlist in the military but not have a beer? I agree that SOME 18 year olds aren't mature enough, but there are plenty of 25 year olds who aren't either.
