Steroid use in professional sports?
There's been a lot of bru-ha-ha recently about professional athletes using "performance-enhancing" drugs. It's even reached the level of Congressional investigations, and Federal Law.
If our elected officials are going to ban performance enhancers as unfair or unhealthy (or any other reason) shouldn't they be fair and ban performance enhancers in other professions? Shouldn't they also ban plastic surgery, boob jobs, and make-up for professional actresses as unfair performance-enhancers?
Also, what other things do you think should be banned in any other professions as "performance-enhancers"?

You are right. I read somewhere that Human Growth Hormone is being used more and more by the rich and famous, now, as a way to make them feel younger and more energetic. Sly Stalone was caught with a satchel of HGH when he was filming the last Rocky movie.
HGH is becoming the new Botox! That is more of a problem then its use in professional sports, IMO.

None of your other examples have an effect on the brain. Steroid users often commit suicide and even murder. Look at Chris Benoit.
