Why should the drinking age be 21 years old, I mean are we even that more mature by that age? “When you are 18 you are judged mature enough to vote, hold public office, serve on juries, serve in the military, fly airplanes, sign contracts and so on. Why is drinking a beer an act of greater responsibility and maturity than flying an airplane or serving your country at war?”("National Youth Rights Association." ) When we turn 18, men get drafted into the military or choose to serve on their own. Either way they have to serve their country. This take responsibility and maturity to be able to do many of the tasks that is asked of them. Like flying airplanes, using weapons, driving vehicles, etc. How can we say that being an 18 we are not mature
