That's very true, and when I was 17 and in the military, nobody ever refused me a drink in the mess-hall that I paid dues to belong to even though the legal drinking age in Ontario at that time was 19.
But that's not even the first thing that comes to my mind about age limits on drinking. I thought first about all the alcohol abuse that goes on in colleges by young students who are under 21 in the USA.
If the legal drinking age in the states was 18 (like most of the rest of the world), do you think that alcohol related incidents would increase, or decrease? I think that they would significantly decrease.
