Nonsense! Clearly the drinking age should be lowered to 18. If a person is old enough to vote, and has the mental capacity to decide who should make the country's laws; if he is old enough to be drafted into the army to be trained to kill and to die in his country's service; if he is old enough to be held mentally competent to stand trial and possibly face the death penalty, then he must surely be old enough to decide whether or not he wants to consume a bottle of beer. Plus, it's American beer, which means it only slightly more alcoholic than water anyway. :-)
You could also point out that making something illegal only makes it more desirable, and that binge drinking of the sort that leads to most young adults' irresponsible behavior, is far more common in the States than in countries that allow them to drink at an early age. [Hey, that gives you something to research. Imagine writing a research paper that references empirical studies].
You could likewise point out that the reason most adults drink is because they believe the benefits outweigh the drawbacks, and that there is no reason why this should be true at 21 and not at 20.
<span>And if anyone should be foolish enough to object that people shouldn't drink because they should be getting an education, you could naturally respond that learning to balance socializing and work is a part of a good education.</span>
The purpose of the Congress was to show support for Boston and to work out a unified approach to the British. On October 14, 1774, the First Continental Congress issued the Declaration of Colonial Rights and Grievances.
Recently, I've learned a lot about how epidemiologists and organizations like the CDC help to keep populations safe from disease. I’m still in middle school, but I think I might be interested in pursuing public health as a career one day. Do you have any recommendations for how could start preparing for work in a public health field now? Any information you could give me would be great. Thank you.
<span>I believe this is the answer but Im not sure, “During his college summers Bushnell managed an arcade at a local amuseme-nt park, where he saw how eager people were to play games.”This shows he really liked video games if he didn't he wouldn't have worked at such a place.
