Class? Perhaps it has to do with the fact that many trusted municipal water systems have been reveales to have temporary or extended contamination?

I asked! These are New Yorkers, we have good water.

To your point though, there was an issue with lead in schools and in NYCHA that may be at play here.

With toxins such as fluoride, indeed. When I was a child, my mother went crazy ordering fluoridated bottled water (in glass) until the City began to fluoridate the tap water supply. And my father is the guy who cleaned up lab spills and asbestos for a living. Then they tried to fluoridate me with Prozac prescriptions. It's literally insane, I tell you: insane.
