Drug Testing on Athletes?

Question by bettylove38: drug testing on athletes?
Should student athletes be tested for drug use or should everyone be tested?
Student athletes in North Carolina are randomly tested for drugs. I am wondering if this is fair…should only athletes be tested, or should teachers and other students be tested also?

Answer by ireland
I know that using drugs to enhance ones performance is cheating, so that’s why athletes are tested. Looking at the popular artists (music, painters etc.) that have used drugs and become famous; I think everyone should be tested. It’s only fair.
