ABC News: Should the Legal Drinking Age Be 18?

I have a better idea, lets raise the age to fight in combat to 21 instead. The argument that 18 year olds can be in combat is constantly used to promote lowering the drinking age. The reality is, and having been that age, an 18 year old is not a full adult. Mentally they do not have a full grasp on reality. They think they do but they don't. I think the question should we raise the age to be in combat to 20 or 21 instead. Let them join the military, but keep them out of combat positions until they are at least 21.

Plus, who wants all these teeny boppers overrunning bars anyway?
