It's bad enough that you can die for your country in a war and be unable to drink, but consider this:
In all the states with the death penalty you can be legally killed by the state for your actions before you're legally allowed to drink a beer.
Surely even the most ardent fans of state sanctioned murder can see a 'responsibility gap' here?
So what's it to be? Accept this ridiculous disparity or lower the drinking age to 16/17/18 or up death penalty eligibility age to 21? (if you're not going to do the civilized thing and scrap the death penalty altogether)
What does everyone think?
