They have done that poll. It's exactly opposite of what you think. They've done this poll lots of times. The results are rather consistent. Here is one such example: http://politicalticker.blogs.cnn.com/2014/07/24/do-you-want-the-drinking-age-lowered/ http://politicalticker.blogs.cnn.com/2014/07/24/do-you-want-... That was just the first result. Anyhow, we don't always want majority rule. At one time, the majority of people felt it was okay to own people. I suspect you can find areas where the majority of people don't think we should have equal rights for certain classes of people.

>Anyhow, we don't always want majority rule. You do in a democracy. >At one time, the majority of people felt it was okay to own people. Until they decided it wasn't ok, and an abolitionist president was elected. >I suspect you can find areas where the majority of people don't think we should have equal rights for certain classes of people. Like civil rights for gays. Also solved by voting. The problem I have with the 21 year old drinking age is it now allows police to jail college kids at will, essentially limiting their life's prospects. Again the punishment is worse than the crime.
