| That is obviously true. Government has decided it's easier, however, to force everyone to consume it, rather than waiting for the public to slowly implement healthy behavior and practices. I happen to agree with you that our water should not be fluoridated routinely. Fluoridating public schools would accomplish some of what fluoridating city water supplies does.
The practical result of not fluoridating water supplies though would be an increase in dental carries for several decades until you could buy virtuous behavior for a dime on ebay. The public have gotten so used to the nanny state that they hardly think for themselves anymore. It's positively endemic. |
