Beer! Whisky! Vodka! Wine!, Drinking Age Options

Should the United States get rid of their drinking age limit like many other countries?

I believe the United States should get rid of the drinking age.
It is actually safer not to have a drinking age. When many people in the U.S. reach the drinking limit, they celebrate by getting dangerously wasted. Countries like France do not have such a big drinking problem like the U.S. because they have no drinking age. Not having a drinking age will allow children to drink. If it's legal to drink, young people will become more mature. They won't have the joy of being a badass drinking underage. In China, almost everyone drinks, and there are a few accidents.

The drinking age in America cause hundred of thousands of people, celebrating being old enough to drink, getting rushed to emergency rooms every year.

This is actually a hard subject, I kinda think both ways but don't. I mean I do have to agree people in other Countries where there is either no drinking age or there is a low drinking age, the country is just better all the way around but at the same time I think the drinking age should stay at 21. But at the same time there really is no point cause a lot of people will not wait till there 21 to get alcohol. So, it's kinda 50/50 for me. :-/ And I do not think that someone waiting till there 21 is going to make them want to get drunk. I tried alcohol at 13..just a sip of beer and had some wine before I was 21 but I didn't actually drink a lot until I turned 21...I have never been drunk. Basically, when it comes to alcohol, I don't think it is the alcohol that is the problem but the people who abuse it.
