Matasoga Deathgod of Legend Assassination is out of question, if I were to take over in such a way, I would only have the most loyal be by my side, this said, if I were to die, who's to say someone worse won't fill my place? It's not a good idea to do things in this way, but the world isn't much better now. If it's not the government being brutal it's the people under it. There's more to be said, but it is especially unseemly for a crew member to derail a topic. I will say on the thought of topic, that I really cannot say anything in support of the ages that our country has chosen. A boy or girl is trusted to guide around a few tons of steel at speeds up to 60 miles per hour for two full years before some states allow them to decide who they want to take to bed. It is absolutely baffling. As for drinking, though, I have little to say against the age limit in regard to alcohol. I took my first drink about a week before my 21st birthday and can definitely say that I didn't need it significantly sooner. We went way off topic with my tyrannical ideas didn't we? The world will never be perfect and I suppose we should just deal with that, Was nice talking with you though.

So did your ideas. And I actually did not state you in particular keeps me in work, it's people with similar ideas that actually act upon them. Because once someone acts upon them, the Red, White, and Blue War Machine kicks on.

Absolutely. If we can die for our country, own property, live on our own, and star in a freakin' porno at 18, then why can't we make the choice of intoxication?

Roxy Hazard Absolutely. If we can die for our country, own property, live on our own, and star in a freakin' porno at 18, then why can't we make the choice of intoxication? Because your brain is still developing. Alcohol DOES affect the brain. Your brain is fully deloped around 20-21 years. And there are somethings you can't even do at 21: Run for US House of Represenatives. (Must be 25.) Run for US Senate. (Must be 30.) Run for President of the United States. (Must be 35.) And to each and every one of you that say "If I'm old enough to die for my country, then I'm old enough to drink," join the ******** military. THEN you can say that without it being simple whining. Because while yes, you can join the military and die, 99% of the US DOESN'T. They choose NOT to have the possibility of dying. And as I stated before, by July, ALL soldiers will be able to drink at 18, so long as they remain on base. So all arguements stating dying for country are hereby invalid. /rant.

To add to that list: -- For the most part, you can't rent a car until you're 25 years old. There are at least a couple companies that will allow you to rent a car at 21, but not only can it take time & effort to locate such companies, but they also charge nearly twice as much to drivers under 25. & it's absolutely impossible to rent a car if you're under 21. -- In almost every state you're not legally allowed to gamble or even enter a casino without parental supervision until you're 21 years old. I don't know why nobody seems to know or care about this. -- You have to be at least 25 years old to adopt a child from another country. Additionally, in most states you have to be either 21 or 25 to adopt a child at all. -- You can't get a credit card or any other type of loan whatsoever without a co-signer unless you're at least 21. etc. etc. Alcohol is NOT the only exception to the Age of Majority in the US, guys... So why is it the only one anyone gives a damn about?Quote: And to each and every one of you that say "If I'm old enough to die for my country, then I'm old enough to drink," join the ******** military.

One of the smartest comments I've read in this thread thus far heart

Deathgod of Legend Matasoga Deathgod of Legend The only difference is that I would kill if my rules were broken. I'd rule through terror and through terror I'd gain respect. Are you serious? This idea is so ill founded and frankly absurd that before continuing I must ask if this is a statement made with any seriousness of if it is offered satirically. It's an idea from someone who dosn't care for the human race anymore. Wow. This makes Hitler look quite saintly.

Don't worry, I already explained to him to continue his ideas. People like that keep me in business.
And Enterprise will rent to 21 year olds. Hell, Budget will rent to 18 year old. Granted...You gotta be military for that. XD

You can go die for your country at age eighteen yet you cant drink until you are twenty one. Now for some odd reason this does not make any sense to me.
