Can't buy beer?....none of my high-school buddies ever had trouble
getting beer....one of them always had a "big brother" to help them
get it.  By your reasoning removing the drinking age laws will reduce
the use of other (illegal) drugs. That maybe so, but only to a very
small extent, and the cost incurred (alcohalizm, increased automobile
fatalities, etc.) is certainly not worth it.

have the solution to the problem).
