Fluoride pioneer Grand Rapids rethinks safety of putting chemical in water
Will the city that became the first in the world to fluoridate its drinking water decide to discontinue use of the chemical?

Flouride-treated water was successfully implemented by Nazi Germany on both prisoners of war and local villages, in order to render them docile, submissive and stupid.
I strongly suspect it is used for the very same reasons here. To support this theory, I offer two strong pieces of circumstantial evidence. First, in agreement with the post above, citing the increase in tooth decay despite the supposed added protection provided by flouridated water. Secondly, and far more subtle, are the election results from this week. Ionia county, which has over 50% of its community water supplies flouridated, has a population of over 60,000. Last Tuesday, a staggering 1705 people turned out to vote. This means, in THIS economy, with a plummeting Dollar and usurious increases in fuel costs, and the ever present threat of depression, 97 people out of every 100 found better things to do besides show up to vote on issues that will have a direct impact on their pocketbooks, and thus, their lives. Meanwhile, 51 MILLION people in America voted for "American Idol" this week. By proportion, SIX TIMES more people voted for AI than for their own interests. If that is not a sign of a stupid and docile population, I do not know what is... These facts, coupled with our complacency over the shredding of our Constitution, the outsourcing of our entire manufacturing base (even our own military cannot function without supply lines from foreign countries, most notably China) and ever-increasing police state tactics employed by our government, make it apparent that flouridization is merely one of many tools for social control being used against us. You are free, to do as we tell you... |

The reason very few people turn out to vote for politicians is because it's a waste of time, besides a single persons vote doesn't really count anyway because it's all percentages. So no matter how many people vote in a state, if half of those people vote for one candidate and the other half vote for the other candidate it's still half. 50% is 50% whether 10,000 or 100,000 people vote.
They keep saying my vote counts, but it really doesn't. When was the last time a presidential candidate lost by 1 vote? |

Thanks for proving my point. Apathy only benefits those who participate. Therefore it is in the best interests of those who would benefit from it to want to perpetuate it. If more people voted in 2000, perhaps the Supreme Court would not have acted so nonchalantly about the Florida vote (which Gore won after the all of the votes were finally tallied). Knowing that the populus is totally flatlined in terms of political awareness made it easier for the Court to rule in favor of those who have a vested interest. And here we are... |

I grew up and lived in Grand Rapids and it's suburbs most of my life and I never had a single cavity, never been sick a day in my life, and Have never had any problems with my bones or teeth. However I've also lived in 3 other States/Cities that don't floridate their water and you should see all the the people with rotted out teeth in those places. All this adverse effect hogwash is just that. Hogwash. Those talking it need to go brush their teeth and stop talking ----.

Yeah, this flouridation thing might be a waste of our money--I've seen some recent studies that say it's really only helpful in developing countries where there is no dental care. Maybe the state should invest in some free or low cost dental clinics instead. The increae in cavities is probably the most prevalent among people who don't have health insurance, anyway. |

Glad some are finally realizing what I've thought to be true for years...... Glad I have well water and can poke around and generally find a toothpaste without fluoride. It is though, by many, to be a toxic substance, I agree. Personally, I believe diet, oral hygiene and most importantly, genetics is the reason behind cavities or not..... We ingest enough toxins in our daily lives, why intentionally add more????
