I can't take it any more!  I'm old enough to go fight a war, pay
200 dollars in taxes on my last pay check, and get the death
sentence, but because I'm under 21, I'm not old enough to
buy a glass of beer.

Now (or this year) Reagan is trying to force ALL states to raise
the minimum drinking age to 21 do to pressure from special interest
groups like MADD.

Its true that a major portion of drunk driving accidents come for
23 year and younger folk but how can we put up with these types
of double standards?
