Synthesis

In the article “Clean Competition Is Safest”, Margaret Goodman declare that people should educate the athletes about the risk, it is because they are the ones being offered the drugs.  She mentions PED not only hurt athlete’s body, it also injuries their careers.  In the second article “Ban What Is Dangerous, Legalize What Is Not”, Yascha Mounk points out that people always use their value to judge others, “The distinction we draw between the substances that should be allowed or prohibited says a lot about our own arbitrary assumptions.”(2016) Yascha do not stand for both sides, he considers discussing what is natural ingredients, and what is performance-enhancing substances.

In my opinion, performance-enhancing drugs do not exist before, athletes know what natural ingredients are good for their performance.  But now, people produce artificial substances, which hurts your physical and mental health. I discourage to legalize PED, not only because of the injuries, but also the value of Sportsman spirit. A fair competition is the most important at all.
