Ridiculous. First, neither of us live in a democracy. There was no vote where the general populace elected to receive low doses of toxic minerals in our drinking water. Rather cabals of lobbyists persuaded municipal officials to add it under the guise of it being a good thing. Which has yet to be statistically demonstrated.

You don't know where I live! Though I'd agree that capitalist countries are not very democratic, at least not mine and the United States.

It varies by country.

"Toxic minerals" is an amusing statement given that virtually all substances are toxic in the correct dose. As someone else pointed out, sola dosis facit venenum: the dose makes the poison.

It's trivial to find out you live in Scotland.

Your statement about toxicity is quite valid, nevertheless you can remove the word toxic and my point still stands.

I would love to know of the country that democratically elected to receive fluoride in their water.

Yeah, I'd just assumed from the way you worded that, that you didn't know where I lived. My bad.
