>> Nothing is worth this price. Don’t pay it.
I hesitate to pass judgement on another's life choices. Some people want to do certain things and are willing to sacrifice everything, including their own happiness, to do that thing. If you want to be an astronaut, if you want to win an Olympic medal, you will sacrifice. If this drug allows a person to pass a test, to win a position that they otherwise would not, who am I to deny them?
Try spending time with military pilots, astronauts or elite mountain climbers. They can be very nice people, until you get between them and work. Don't ask an astronaut to delay a flight for a wedding, or to donate a kidney. Every one of them would take this drug if that allowed them to beat out the competition. Happiness, theirs or anyone else's, is secondary.
