Some years ago there were a few states that allowed drinking at age 18. At some point in time the Federal Government said that the drinking age could be lowered to 18 in all of the states that chose to do so. Within a relatively short period of time the death rate of teens (primarlily auto related) rose so high that the Federal Government ordered all states to raise the drinking age back up to age 21, including those states that had a drinking age of 18 prior to the ease of restrictions by the Federal Government.
