Counterpoint: Rich people still end up with Heroin addictions.
From what I've seen, doping is almost irresistible if you start down the path of high performance and have the cash to support it. People who are doping don't think they are destroying their body, they think they are unlocking their true potential. This is doubly true if you have enough money to hire a professional team to monitor/regulate your PEDs.

I’d speculate a US medical team keen on a gold metal is less likely to have the same morals as a privately paid one. However one caveat, at this point I am far outside what I can substantiate via direct experience or data.
