Akey part of the war on crime that began in the 1960s was increased punishments for drug offenses. a key argument by many detractors is that the imrpisonment of drug offenders is wrong and that both the drug user and society would benefit more?

True.

Explanation:

People who oppose the War on Drugs argue that drug offenders should not be incarcerated because most of them are not violent criminals, and being a drug addict should not be considered a crime but a disease, and correspondingly, should be treated by medical professionals.

Unfair incarceration of drug offenders contributes to the break up of families, specially in low-income areas, and this phenomenon as a whole affects society. Children born in households with incarcerated parents are more likely to be poor, to become addicts themselves, or to commit crimes in the future.
