Actually, steroids and "pro-hormones" are a very minor worry as far as public health/safety is concerned. When not used in excessive doses for excessive periods they are extremely safe. Inject 10X the recommended dosage of testosterone cypionate and you'll experience no life threatening condition. Take ten times the recommended dosage of tylenol and you are likely to suffer liver failure.
A study found tylenol to be the number one cause of liver failure in the United States, ahead of alcohol. There are approximately 70,000 cases of acetaminophen toxicity reported each year. A December 1994 study in the New England Journal of Medicine found that a daily tablet of acetaminophen for a year or 1,000 pills over a lifetime doubled the odds of kidney failure.
Despite all of the anti- steroid propaganda, the diet of the average american will contribute to premature death and serious illness. A bodybuiding lifestyle with moderate steroid use will prolong life. Smoking and alcohol are not even in the same league as AAS when it comes to pre-mature death and serious illness.
The reason politicians are "all over" steroids is that it's a very non-controversial issue that gets their name in the paper. Being anti-crime and anti-drug has always been the easy way for politicians to get name recognition without actually doing something controversial or drying up their donations. They can also endear themselves to the "soccer mom" demographic by "protecting" the children. If these mothers wanted to protect their children from pre-mature death and serious health problems they wouldn't allow them to consume school lunches, other junk food and have endless hours of inactivity. If politicians really cared about the health and welfare of the average citizen they would pursue the real public health issues.
