How does prison help drug crimes? It might be ok for the more violent crimes but I don't see how putting a drug user or dealer in prison solves anything. Someone else will fill their niche in the supply chain. When 1/5 of prisoners in america are in for drug related offenses, it's definitely something that needs to be considered.
If they're in for that reason it's because they were caught using or selling, not for commiting a crime under the influence of drugs. I don't see how using drugs hurts anyone except maybe yourself, and unless they're using illegal sales tactics then the other shouldn't be a crime either.
