Enhancement Drugs

Our topic of discussion today was over whether or not enhancement drugs should be allowed in the sports industry. In this situation I value the morality of the sport more than winning the game. I think enhancement drugs set a bad example for young athletes in our society because it gives them an easier path to success.  What kind of life lesson would the next generation learn if we permit loopholes?  But others may think that doping for example allows athletes to further improve their natural ability.  But what would happen if all drugs were legalized and the playing field was even? Wouldn’t athletes want to be even better?  Would genetic doping be next? I feel like genetic doping is inhumanly because it changes the genetic make-up of an individual. Genetic make-up is very complicated in the fact that several genes affect one another and are intertwined in a very specific way; changing something very small can cause a huge difference in an individual.  There are a lot of “ifs” in this controversial issue and I would have to admit that Dr. Todd’s solutions is the most rational.  Why not separate the two leagues? One that allows doping and or any enhancement drugs, and one that would maintain the athlete’s natural ability.  The sports industry could even make fields larger and re-invent the sport adapting to each player’s need.  Then society could stick to their morals and support whichever industry they chose. There would be controversies, of course, with athletes who dope and try to enter the league of those who do not.  In this situation I would recommend that these athletes should be banded from the sports industry indefinitely.
