Revert the legal drinking age back to 18 and lessen pregaming
Why is this important?
The legal drinking age at 21 has increased pregaming by underage drinkers. When pregaming (drinking before going out so they don't have to show ID) the risk of : drunk driving increases, alcohol poisoning increases, risky behavior increases. When the legal age was 18 it was appropriate. At 18 kids went away to college, entered the service and went out on their own. College students (and anyone else for that matter) will drink no matter what, especially when they are away from home. By making it legal, these kids won't have to resort to drinking as much as they can before they go out to avoid using phoney ID's.
