Should the United States legal drinking age be changed to 18?
In 1986, Mother Against Drunk Driving succeeded in lobbying efforts to make federal highway subsidies dependent on a 21 drinking age. Since then, every state has complied. Does this help keep us safe on the roads or does it infringe states' rights and the freedoms that come along with adulthood?

No rights have been 'infringed'. Any state that wants a different age can by a simple vote. The fact that the state will lose highway funds has nothing to do with rights.
