BUT...........if you SUBSIDIZE the negative results, then you will get EVEN MORE of it.

In most cases yes

In this case there is no evidence to suggest that

People already have a personal incentive not to do drugs

Providing subsidized rehab isn't an incentive to do drugs when not doing drugs is still the more logical alternative

Well, I mean. That's just not true. Economics works........always.

To be sure. But, it's not the only incentive.
