what should the drinking age be.

As most of you know the legal drinking age in Vermont is 21 years old. You have to stop and ask yourself is that really the right age. Is it right that someone like myself who's going to be in the military by the time i'm 18 and be putting my life on the line but I cant have a beer if I want one.
I also don't think its right that when you turn 18 your old enough to vote for a new leader and have important responsibility like that but you cant have a beer if you want one.
It's things like that where you have to ask yourself if 21 is the right drinking age or should it be lowered to 18. I personally feel that if someone is old enough to pick up a gun, join the military, and possibly lay there life down for there country then they should be old enough to have a beer if they want one.
There are also some other factors that I take into mind that make the drinking age 21. If they lowered the drinking age to 18 you have to stop and ask yourself, how many high schoolers are 18? If they lowered the drinking age to 18 there would be far more high school parties and there would be far more drunk driving accidents. It would also be alot easier for young kids to get alchohol. which could lead to more alchohol related fatalities.

so its up to you to ask yourself what the right drinking age is.
