Enhanced Games: A Controversial Olympics on Steroids
A businessman named Aaron DeSouza has created the Enhanced Games, an Olympics-style event where athletes can take performance-enhancing drugs. Backed by venture capitalists, this event aims to push the limits of human performance and entertainment. While 44% of anonymous survey respondents admit to using banned substances in the regular Olympics, only 1% are caught. The Enhanced Games aims to create a separate platform where athletes can compete while using enhancements.
