What is wrong with fluoride?

Carefully controlled? Then why are people experiencing fluorosis at all? Your complete dismissal of any negatives of fluoride is a tell all.

I know that you and other fluoride fanboys aren't interested in hearing anything about the negatives. This is for everyone else. Anyone who actually cares to learn more about water fluoridation should actually research the inception of the practice. Basically a huge PR campaign pushed on the American people from the Aluminum industry. I won't post any links, do your own research from sources that you deem trustworthy. But do the search, its readily available information.

Your post contains many exaggerations and straight up lies. First of all water fluoridation is a practice that is not generally accepted around the world. Nearly every European country and first world nation has abandoned the practice. This speaks volumes in itself. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluoridation_by_country Less than 6% of the world fluoridates. LESS THAN 6%. Guess where almost all of them live...

Can you think of any other "medication" that is forced on the population in this manner? Why don't we just incorporate all of medications in this fashion, would you be ok with that? Why not? Maybe because you cannot regulate how much medicine everyone takes in? Maybe because the medicine could harm some people or is not necessary for everyone? Remember that this was marketed as safe in the same era that told us DDT was safe, lead paint and leaded gasoline were safe, cigarettes were safe, etc. If people are skeptical of the purported safety and benefits of fluoride its for good reason.

Not exactly sure why you'd be against this anyway. If you like fluoride go ahead and add it to the water that you want to drink, its not like it would be expensive for you to do. However, to take it out of the water is costly. I don't want to be drinking the waste product of fertilizer production or aluminum production. If I want fluoride then I'll get it from my toothpaste, no need for it to be ingested and impact my whole body. Individuals should have the right to determine what they ingest, its just that simple.
