Problem: Imagine you have two competing athletes who have the option to use an illegal and dangerous drug to enhance their performance (i.e., dope).

However, if both athletes dope, the advantages cancel out, and only the risks remain, putting them both in a worse position than if neither had been doping. What outcome do we expect from these two athletes?   Please use ideas like concepts of monopolies, Oligopolies and Game Theory and Factor markets for this scenario.
