60 Minutes did it again with a great news story debating the latest attempts to lower the drinking age. I have blogged about this before and only bring it up again to identify yet another excellent news story by 60 minutes. Leslie Stahl interviews one of the university presidents who created a group of university presidents whose charter is to change the laws and lower the drinking age to 18 from the current 21. We at the Joshua Project do not support this due to the fact that there are a number of studies that show automobile deaths by drunk drivers increases dramatically and immediately when the drinking age falls.
The only good thing to come out of this debate is the fact that the idea of lowering the drinking age is being reviewed and debated again. The issue is out in the open once again to be debated by intelligent people. This is a good thing because it will cause folks to rethink their positions and confirm assumptions. It is very healthy to do that regularly and this debate is no exception.
However, that all said, assumptions have been revisited and positions restated, and I have concluded that I still think its a bad idea.
What do you think? Give me the pros and cons for lowering the drinking age. Here is the 60 Minutes news story.
