Why is it young adults cannot just accept the notion they cannot drink until age 21 ? Society has so decreed and yet there are still things like Jell-O shots being made and now topped with an alcohol enhanced whipped cream.
Can't there be a law ? A new agency ? A way to anticipate what these wily college students will do next to ingest the devil's brew and the demon rum.
As with the recent false indignation over the alcohol energy drink FourLoko, there will be legislative calls for regulation of whipped cream...Can we add a ban on Jell-O sales to those under 21 ?
The 21 year old drinking age is like the dog chasing its tail. Adults should be adults...and the age where you can vote, fight,smoke and sign a contract would seem appropriate. We live in a state where a girl can get married at 14 but can't toast the event for seven years.

Has it occurred to you that auto and life insurance companies keep track of the number of accidents and fatalities of drinking drivers, and their ages? Don't you think they have a say in setting the age?
Nah, it never occurred to him . He wants to sell more booze.
Then we better start raising some other ages too
I think I had one of these at a Thanksgiving dinner. I got lost on the way home. Ended up in an Indian Casino, but won a bunch of money that I didn't declare on my taxes. Bought cigarettes, doubled my money and left the state. Now I live with a bunch of retired teachers in Cancun.
Insurance companies should have no say in our discriminatory drinking laws.
And they have no valid statistics as the only info recorded is "was a factor" not "was a contributing factor".
11:21 LOL!
Wasn't the drinking age raised because of federal "highway dollars" arm twisting, and special interests,as well? It's too bad that the federal gov't. ,does not give equal rights to 18 year olds.
