Lets see, headlines today are on the budget deficit and the debt ceiling. Yet here we are spending taxpayer dollars, energy, on a baseball player who juiced. How many college scholarships, small business loans, infrastructure repairs could have replaced this farce of an endeavor?? How many hours of research and labor put into this case that could have been spent maybe investigating real criminals, white collar crimes or researching solutions to any number of problems plaguing the country?! How about just saving the money spent? Thats novel. This story illustrates one of the reasons why we are in our financial situation in the first place, how government rarely uses logic to create and implement its laws and the brainwashed state of the average American.
A whole year preparing for the case only to fuck it up in the opening statements?!!
How many frivolous cases like this is our federal government pursuing? Besides going after medical marijuana dispensaries of course. I'm sure there are millions that could be better spent or not spent at all. who's going to be held accountable for this waste of money and resources?
What is the logic behind pursuing the whole steroids in baseball issue at all?
Integrity of a fucking game? This is just asinine given the state of the economy and doesn't deserve a response.
To protect kids? Please research the statistics on teen deaths or ER visits. You'll see steroids waaay down on the list. If the goal is really to protects teens lets spend the money and resources on any of the top 20 causes of death or ER visits for teens. Really save or change some lives.
Despite all of the evidence most Americans just absorb whatever the government or media spouts and actually believe steroids are actually having that big of an impact. I have been around gyms and athletes all my life, and I can tell you this for a fact. Never had I been approached for, or overheard anyone discussing steroids. During and since there is not a month that goes by that I don't get a question or overhear someone talking about a stack. If this happens in my circle be sure it happened around the world. These government idiots did more marketing for steroids than a Superbowl commercial would've. Who could blame people? Look at these ancient and weak looking, hunchbacked politicians questioning these muscular, tanned, healthy looking sports gods. Who would you rather resemble as a man in general? Most men would kill to look and perform like Rafael Palmiero at his age.
Lets see if they continue to pursue this and promote the steroid brand or get smart and save or reallocate our precious resources. Well I already know the answer to that one...
