From what I've read, imprisonment doesn't stop the drug use. Drugs get into prisons fairly easily, perhaps even more so than outside. It was a huge problem in South Texas, around the prison farms where prisoners were out in fields during the day. The drug dealers would bury the packages in the field at night and mark them for their dealers inside to pick up and sell inside.
My biggest fear is that the kind of war over turf that has paralyzed cities in Mexico like Juarez will spread to the US, which is where the money is coming from after all.
