One has to ask what makes someone do Meth, Crack, and H in the first place. Since you can possibly become addicted with one hit or shot, alleviating and deflecting that first hit or shot is paramount to curbing the addiction and overdoses. Thus, more education and social programs would be in order - which would save the taxpayers lots, minimizing prison expenditures, thefts and burglaries, AIDS/needle diseases, police patrols, ... and funeral costs.
