Legal drinking age

The legal drinking age is the age at which someone can legally drink alcoholic beverages.

In the United States, the drinking age is ridiculous. The drinking age should be moved down to 18, at least. We might want to move it down even further, like 16. The legal drinking age is just needless prohibition. People often start drinking far before they are legally old enough. The same thing is happening for underage drinking that has happened for all other drugs. People do it anyway.
