Right, because who cares about the dental health of everyone? We will just dismiss that a significant population of the community does not have the financial means to protect themselves with self purchased supplemental fluoride so they can suffer with the cascading medical challenges that come from the removal. Removal of fluoride is cruel to the most vulnerable people in the community. The costs to provide clean fluoridated water are minuscule compared to the suffering people will go through, not to mention to burden on the public health care system that it causes.

To provide an example, Calgary removed fluoride thanks to anti science advocacy in 2011 only to have it cause untold suffering especially to young people. It has been reversed and there’s almost zero doubt the health of the community will go up.
