The Right Age for Drinking Whatever When properly analyzed it becomes terribly obvious why the majority of Americans want to have the right age for the legal drinking of alcohol. Want to know why? Well, simply put, they are dumb! Ok, now that I have offended you please let go a little and read on. It has always been assumed that when someone reaches a certain age that they will finally come of age (whatever that was supposed to mean) and become adults at which point they will make more logical decisions and be a better part of their society. If that were the case, when it comes to alcohol consumption, there would not be any problems like those currently experienced throughout the U.S.A. and the Mothers Against Drunk Driving would only have to deal with their kids and not some other adults. Well, they like most others really do not understand the mental deficiencies of the human animal. Drinking in excess is not an age related problem and the approach of making laws to drink based upon a person’s age is quite silly and will never solve the issue at hand. Now, are you ready for the worst parts of this anti-age based law which relates to personal decisions? Well, here it is: Why is it that the voting age can be 18 while the drinking age is 21. Also, how can those who are 18 become members of the world’s most powerful military with a primary focus on killing other differently and not be allowed to drink whatever they choose? Worse, how can there be no age controls in the illicit drug trade when parents want someone else to take that which is their responsibility? And the worst age related issue is … Want to guess? Take a minute. Ok, here it is: How can someone have sex with another under age individual and even have a child but not have the right to smoke a cigarette or have a beer? Well, when properly analyzed it is very apparent that this nation needs to wake up to the real world and learn that it has been living under the illusions primarily fostered by ignorance and hence needs to change. So, first we need to eliminate all of those silly age related laws and start by not having any age restricted laws for any of the above issues. However, knowing that the related problems will not just go-away, start to hold those who have children responsible for the upbringing of their families and maybe even begin to have laws where the parents are held accountable for the actions of their children to the point that they will also be required to spend time in jail or prison if their kids are ever charged will doing something like driving under the influence of whatever.  In conclusion you must ask: “What is an ‘adult’ anyway?”

This site has many articles which are far more serious and includes one, True Freedom - The Road to the First Real Democracy, which includes the first truly democratic constitution ever written along with the needed explanation.
