^ Fair point to a degree, but I think we should keep in mind that a lot of the dopers did it just to be able to keep up. There's so many domestiques who rides basically for food. They work hard their whole life, just to when finally getting close to their dream, realise they have to dope to stay in there.
What would you do? Not dope is easier said than done I think. Not saying it's ok at all, just saying it'd be a very hard decision indeed when everyone around you does, and therefor it becomes default.
