Steroids & Baseball

I don't get these people out there that are complaining about how "congress is wasting time and tax payer dollars on baseball". Is there something I'm missing here? The last time I checked, steroids were illegal in the United States without a doctors prescription. And seeing how MLB hasn't really done anything to stop the use of steroids (and potentially encouraging the use, or at least not discouraging the use), the government finally had to step in. Baseball has essentially turned its back on what could be described as an illegal drug ring. Except this time the drugs aren't crack, cocaine, speed, marijuana, etc., the drugs are steroids.

I have no problem with the federal government stepping in to break up ILLEGAL ACTIVITY in baseball. I don't hear many people saying it's a waste of time and money trying to break up and prevent drug smuggling from Mexico, the Caribbean, Central America, etc. This is exactly the same thing, except it involves different drugs, and it's right in our back yard.
