Lower the U.S. Drinking Age

Drinking age should be reduced to 18 instead of 21. People all over the world drink alcohol. In many countries, the age limit is low or there is no limit to drinking. In the United States, drinking is legally 21 years old. Many young Americans drink alcohol every day at this age. You are to be considered an adult when you are 18 years old.

If the minimum drinking age in the United States (US) drops to 18 years, the result will be not only 18-20 years old but also alcohol less than 18 years old. In addition, research in the United States shows a decrease in alcohol content. Drinking age from 18 to 18 will also increase alcohol related accidents for children between 15 and 17 years old. The minimum legal drinking age (MLDA 21) law will reduce the number of lives of about 800-900 people annually and reduce the number of traffic accident deaths involving young drivers. According to medical research, excessive drinking by young people under the age of 20 causes damage to the brain and may reduce brain function. Drinking alcohol before 21 years of age increases the risk of future alcohol abuse, car crashes and attacks, and other alcohol related problems.

The legal drinking age in the United States has a long history. In the early 1970s, 29 provinces reduced legal drinking age to 18 years old, 19 years old, or 20 years old. However, when young people drunk, many states began to turn things up. Federal law change ultimately urged all states to adopt a minimum age of 21 years old by 1988. In one study, researchers discovered that the proportion of massive drinking in teens has declined. In 2011, 36% of college students answered that they had intermittent drinking (one or more drinking) in the past two weeks. Compared to 43% of students in 1988, this is the first year that all states in the United States will be 21 years old. High school graduates have decreased greatly from 35% to 22%

Setting legitimate drinking age is an area in each state, but this is not the case in the United States. In the 1970s more than half of the states reduced their drinking age to 21, 20, 19, 18, so in 1984 they passed a ban and prohibited the province from refusing such a proposal. : With the promulgation of the National Minimum Drinking Age Act, the state can choose to raise his age to 21 or to lose the federal highway fund. They will continue to hold federal funds
