When the state and country go bankrupt within the year or two the drinking age will not be enforced, PERIOD END OF DISCUSSION.

Most countries don't even enforce drinking ages if they have one (the two glaring exceptions are US, and to a less extent Canada). It is expensive to enforce any type of 'crime'.

If you go to immigrant neighborhoods anywhere in the US, (they are usually poorer) they come from a world where children become adults upon puberty which is why they don't see any problem with selling 'minors' alcohol. Look at the demographic/political/economic future of the US, WE WILL NOT BE ABLE TO CONTINUE OUR LAVISH LIFESTYLE FOR MUCH LONGER.
