HOST;

Tonight is New Year's Eve. Many people will attend New Year's parties where they will drink alcohol. A listener in Vietnam wrote to ask why a person in the United States must be at least twentyone years old to do this legally. Nguyen Hoang Phong noted that eighteen years is the legal age for drinking alcohol in most countries. Here is Faith Lapidus with our answer. ANNCR:

Discussing the drinking age in the United States can lead to an argument. I will try to explain both sides of this issue. In nineteen-eighty-four,Congress passed a measure called the National Minimum Drinking Age Act. President Ronald Reagan signed the measure into law.

It bans people in the United States from drinking alcohol unless they are twentyone years of age or older. States must obey the law or risk losing federal money for building roads and road repairs. The measure was the result of work by several lawmakers and groups such as Mothers Against Drunk Driving.

Last July,that group and members of Congress celebrated the twentieth anniversary of the law. They praised the measure as one of the most effective antidrunk driving laws ever passed. They said that twentythousand lives have been saved since its passage.

However,some opponents of the measure say it did not save anyone. They say young people who want to drink will find a way to get alcohol. They also reject the number of young people reportedly saved by the law. They say fewer young people are drinking now than twenty years ago.

Other people say the National Minimum Drinking Age Act is not fair. They say a young person can join the military and fight in a war at age eighteen. However,they are still not permitted to drink alcohol until they are twentyone.

Many Americans would like to change the law to make eighteen the age when a person can drink alcohol. But just as many want to keep the drinking age at twentyone.

The question of a legal drinking age involves ideas of freedom,responsibility,religion,politics and the rights of parents. It is a question that will be argued in the United States for many years to come.
