Cognition enhancing drugs

I found this article,
Drugs may boost your brain power, online at the BBC news, although it is written by Pallab Ghosh. It is about the impact of a new generation of drugs. The government is judging the drugs. These drugs are maintained to make people more intelligent. They called "cognition enhancing" drugs, and some of them are already using in the US. One of these drugs was established to treat people who involuntarily fall asleep. In the past, a doctor tested the drug on experimenter. She discovered not only the drug kept them awake but also it made their brains much more dramatic. Moreover, a professor designed the drug that build thoughts to make neural connections. The government is just assessing the effects of drugs.

In my opinion, these drugs will give people advantages clearly in the future. These may make people genius. However, our society is not ready for these drugs. People always will believe the impact of these drugs, and they will not study and work. Rather, these "cognition enhancing" drugs are going to make people silly. Do these drugs give advantages to our society? Do you want these drugs to be genius?
