I read somewhere an idea that maybe we should have alternative Drug-lympics where all kinds of drugs are allowed. Besides the usual entertainment value, it would also help advance medical and biotechnological research.
Yes, but some young people would fuck themselves up for life, possibly under pressure from their families. That happens now too, of course, and at least when it’s legal they could get earlier and better help; but I still don’t see any politician voting for it.
I don’t see any US politician voting for it. On the other hand it might be a smart move for a Latin American country. They could completely legalize all drugs and invite people to experiment.
I concur. The Olympians have been cheating since the inception of the modern Olympics, and will continue to do so. There is little doubt in my mind that nearly every successful Olympic Athlete has used these drugs (a kind of race to the bottom is at work here). Hell, the Olympics could be regarded as a contest on secretive steroid use… A Drug-Olympics could be a showcase of the newest biotechnological advancements. The data gained from the plethora of individuals experimenting with these substances would be great; the physiological effects of these ‘drugs’ could be examined with regard to the nationalities and genetic make-up of these individuals. It could lead to some very interesting results/advancements.
