Supposedly Stalin found that by fluoridating the drinking water in his concentration camps the prisoners became so docile that he was able to greatly reduce the number of guards necessary. As far as we know, drinking water fluoridatia is forbidden here in Continental Europe, thank God. Edited by Erna, May 15 2013, 07:57 AM.

Yes, it is. It was also prohibited in Portland, where I lived for 5 years. It's one of the only major US cities to outlaw it. |

Perhaps this is a reason that the US populace is so docile and humbly submits to any abuse from their tyrannical government. |

I read that it was originally just a waste product that no one knew what to do with. Then someone had an idea to dump it into drinking water and convince the public that it was a health benefit. Best sales campaign since Christianity. |

r7 is 100% correct. It is a waste product of aluminum manufacturing, if we are not mistaken. Highly poisonous. Edited by Erna, May 16 2013, 08:02 AM.

I read about it this morning on Wiki, thanks to this thread. It's interesting. I guess I'd have to say I'm for it. Water fluoridation, when feasible and culturally acceptable, has substantial advantages, especially for subgroups at high risk.[8] The U.S. Centers for Disease Control listed water fluoridation as one of the ten great public health achievements of the 20th century;[14] in contrast, most European countries have experienced substantial declines in tooth decay without its use, primarily due to the introduction of fluoride toothpaste in the 1970s.[3] The use of topical fluorides (such as in toothpaste) to prevent caries among people living in both industrialized and developing countries may help supplant the need for fluoridated water.[3] Fluoridation may be more justified in the U.S. because of socioeconomic inequalities in dental health and dental care.[15] Public water fluoridation was first practiced in the USA,[16] and has been introduced to many other countries to varying degrees[17] with many countries having water that is naturally fluoridated to recommended levels and others, such as in Europe, using fluoridated salts as an alternative source of fluoride.[18] The goal of water fluoridation is to prevent a chronic disease whose burdens particularly fall on children and on the poor.[19] Its use presents a conflict between the common good and individual rights.[20] It is controversial,[21] and opposition to it has been based on ethical, legal, safety, and efficacy grounds.[22] Health and dental organizations worldwide have endorsed its safety and effectiveness http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_fluoridation People who support water flouridation include dentists, hygienists, health educators, doctors and administrators. I can't believe they all work for the New World Order, so I'm now a believer. |
