Minimum Drinking Age Act in 1984 set the drinking age in the US to 21 and there has been an intense debate ever since of whether or not the age a person is allowed to drink should be changed back to the age of 18. On one hand, you have some people who say the drinking age should not be lowered because it would increase drunk driving and alcoholism.

Some people believe the drinking age requirement should be lowered which would be very irresponsible.The requirement age is currently at 21. The drinking age should be not lowered and should stay at the age it is at now.

drinking age should be lowered to eighteen like most other countries or if it should stay at twenty-one. Teenagers are continuing to buy alcohol with fake ID, get into bars, and drink illegally.
