Varies by state. Look up your state laws!
21 because you have you be legel age for the worled
Yes, states decide the laws concerning drinking and the selling of liquor .
the government....probably, unless you try! :P
Probrably not in my opinion, But the Government in not so many words are considering making the drinking age 21 because most people go out a lot when there 18 to get drunk. Personaly i think it would make no differance what so ever to lower or rank the drinking age, because at 21 people could still go out to get drunk and cause problems.
It depends on your local laws.
They have more power than the state government
Who are you referring to with the use of "your"? Many countries have a single government and are not federated. Some do, and in these cases each state decides for itself within limits set by the federal government. In all others, drinking age is set by the single government.
The U.S. Government passed the National Minimum Drinking Age Act on July 17, 1984. This did not change the drinking age. However, it forced the individual states to establish the minimum drinking age as 21 or lose 10% of their federal highway funding.
The drinking age in New York state in 1969 was 18. It was raised to 21 in 1982. Pressure by the federal government was brought to bear on states to raise the age.
They are not lowering the drinking age to 18. The minimum purchase and drinking age is a state law. Each individual U.S. state establishes by law the minimum age at which an individual may purchase alcoholic beverages. The U.S. Government passed the National Minimum Drinking Age Act on July 17, 1984. This did not change the drinking age. However, it forced the individual states to establish the minimum drinking age as 21 or lose 10% of their federal highway funding. The minimum drinking age is 21 in all 50 U.S. states.
