typically not addictive.

Anyone who takes them runs the risk of being addicted to the experience hence the abuse of these drugs in the first place.

It may not be the same kind of addiction but they still go back time and time again.

Furthermore various mental issues can come from them so even if you don't get addicted you can still be harmed.

Its a useless past-time thats dangerous and is less fun than other mediums of entertainment.

Rather than reduce yourself to an incoherent mess for a while you can spend the money doing basically anything else for a better time.

Hang out with friends, travel somewhere in you state or country, play some video games, anything else is better.

Its a useless risk that should be banned, other than medical use, to protect society.

You don't get addicted to experiences. You get addicted to chemicals. You are approaching a scientific topic from an emotional stance. You cannot do that.
