enforce the law

 

            
            
             In the United States, the legal drinking age for all fifty states and the District of Columbia is twenty-one years of age. The drinking age is twenty-one because when the "powers" that control the government decided that when somebody turns twenty-one, they are magically transformed into a responsible person and are capable of handling the responsibility which comes with the right to consume alcohol. Although, in most states the legal age to sell alcohol is nineteen. Some people in the United States may agree with my opinion that, the drinking age is too high in this country. I think that we should change the legal drinking age to nineteen. Why follow laws that ban something which will be ignored by many of our peers?.
             The authority may say that the higher drinking age will discourage teenagers and young adults from consuming alcohol. They say the laws that insist on merchants to turn people down less than twenty-one years of age will help get rid of the problem of underage drinking. The opposition believe this will make the majority impossible for people under the age of twenty-one to obtain alcohol. Numerous arguing people also believe that the laws against under age consumption of alcohol beverages will dissuade younger people from drinking alcohol. I am not in disagreement that alcohol is a predicament in the United States, but I am convinced that the laws we encompass today have caused several Americans to abuse their drinking privileges. I believe there are ways to create an effect to help solve some of these problems.
             The laws that go against merchants from selling alcohol to people under the age of twenty-one are nearly impossible to enforce. Even if authorities force them, the people who decide to break these laws are rarely punished severely. For example, in a few states there have been raids of businesses that had liquor licenses and were able to vend alcoholic beverages to minors.
