I personally still marvel at how people stomach the 21 drinking age (and 19 smoking age, at least here in AL). An 18 year old can be drafted to fight for our country, but isn't allowed to have a smoke or a drink (or play a round of cards)?

I understand you have some financial incentive to card these folks (i.e. you can lose your job). However I see absolutely no moral reason for a stance like this. Just another case of our politicians mucking the place up.

There are a few out there that can handle it but for the most part an 18 year old isn't mature enough to handle the adult world. I sure as hell don't understand and never will understand 18 year olds at war.
