Randy sez: "Bottom line - Fluoridation opponents care nothing about public health measures." So fluoride proponents care nothing about the public's right to choose what non-essential, expensive to remove toxins are added to their drinking water. Fluoride opponents have already agreed chlorination is an acceptable form of vital water safety treatment, so your statement above is a blatant LIE!!!
Dental decay IS a serious problem, but the best way to prevent it is teaching kids to brush and floss after meals, & giving them time & materials to do so at school, making it as habitual as standing to pledge allegiance to a piece of cloth. I also support having kids teeth painted with fluoride, and if we can afford boondoggles like Harbor-Town and carbon-fiber recycling we can afford school-based dental care.
Go back to North Carolina and deal with some of your own dumbed down results of fluoridation. We've enough of them here already, often in office, unfortunately.
