Sending those pesky addicts to jail will certainly fix the issue.

  That is a strawman. Most countries keeps drugs illegal without sending addicts to jail. There is no reason you have to go with one or the other.

      Norway doesn't sendt addicts to jail for addiction as far as I know. (But will sometimes send addicts to jail for dealing drugs or for stealing to finance their drug use.)

          Originally there was a much better proposal by Høgre ( literally "Right", probably best translated as "Conservatives") but it was shot down by Arbeiderpartiet ("Worker's Party" / "Labour" depending on how literally you want to translate it.) If anyone find it more than a bit ironic then we agree.
