"How to fight binge drinking"

I totally agree with the whole lowering the age limit idea because it would really probably work. It isn't just that I like to drink or something it is because I feel that right now how when the age of drinking is 21 years old, teenagers are all sneaking in the wine, beer or whatever it is they drink. If the age was 18 years old they wouldn't have to do that. They would drink alot and then experience the tired ness after they drink a whole bunch of liquor.
How would it work? I don't really know but I kind of feel that it would work. Lowering the drinking age would probably excite all the teenagers and all but then later they wouldn't have to like try to steal beer or alcohol and get in trouble for it. If they lower the age they should also remind teenagers that even though the drinking age is 18 years old that there are also consequences. For example the whole drinking and driving dealio.
If you drink and drive then you die..kind of like that kind of consequences. You know scare them and all that. Teenagers can get pretty dumb so I kind of have doubts about the age lowering. If teenagers could prove that they aren't that stupid then it would be a good idea right away. See if it were me then I would be responsible. I don't really want to take my life away and really not someone elses life. I would regret it.
Maybe it is just me because of the type of person I am. See some people really don't care if they crash and just get injured but take away someones life they just continue on with it. So about the whole age lowering I am like a 50/50. I like it but then I really don't.
