A) the legal drinking age, age of consent, voting age, and age of Draft/ military eligibility should be the same. Whether that’s 21 or 18 or whatever is up for debate, but if you’re old enough to kill people at your country’s behest you should be old enough to decide what goes in your body.
B) Lots of countries are pretty lax about kids drinking small amounts of alcohol, and it doesn’t lead to increased negative outcomes.
In my state, you have to ask for everyone’s ID unless they “appear to be over 90.”
Really adds insult to injury here.
Meanwhile in Oklahoma
Also I couldn’t find a cool infographic of “ask for ID“ laws
Honestly I’m kinda OK with that.

Our country was pretty lax about it too until MADD went full power mode in the 90’s.
My state is 35 or under, you look over 35 you don’t have to have an id unless the seller insists but it’s not required.
Now everyone who doesn’t get carded and is below 35 but above the drinking age is offended.
