They actually did lower the drinking age to 18 for a period of time (in the 70s I believe, but can't remember exactly when). They found that when they did this, people just started drinking at a younger age. So instead of starting at 17 or 18, they started at about 14 or 15 supposedly. I'm not sure exactly how you would test that theory out, but some states did I guess. At least you got a good story out of it haha.
