In response to a 4 year-old public proposal and 19,000 accompanying signatures from concerned Americans, the federal government has apparently decided to lower the recommended amount of fluoride added to public drinking water. For the last 50 years or so, our benefactors in Washington have advocated dosing the American public with sodium-fluoride as a public health initiative, ostensibly to reduce dental cavities.
With a recent public announcement, the government changed these dated recommendations and in the process essentially admitted that the science behind public water fluoridation is wrong, or perhaps even non-existent. Yet, instead of recalling or ending public water fluoridation, they merely tweaked the recommended dosage, which is makes absolutely no sense if the argument for fluoridation is supposed scientific in any way.
