MikeT: I see this argument All The Time, and maybe you can tell me how those things are remotely equivalent?
It’s not very hard. You would trust a 18 year old to go into battle, killing people and breaking things in a role that may affect US foreign policy, but you won’t let them have a beer. It requires an extreme cognitive dissonance to believe that a 18 year old can serve with honor and distinction in a war, an act that requires a significant amount of maturity, but cannot handle alcohol.
