Despite study after study that shows Fluoride does not help prevent cavities, and is even responsible for the dumbing down of ‘mericans, many U.S. municipalities refuse to eliminate fluoride from tap water.

The American Dental Association (ADA) just issued a report saying 40% of U.S. teenagers have flourosis, a discoloration of the teeth caused by fluoride.

Now the bad economy is doing what study after study, and even lawsuit after lawsuit, were unable to do; end fluoridation of tap water!

On 12 June 2012, the city of Pevely, Missouri, announced they were stopping the use of fluoride, to save money.  Adding fluoride was costing the city $10,000 per year.

Despite all the international studies showing that fluoride is actually harmful, the U.S. news media, and health care/pharmaceutical industry, slammed Pevely city officials for their decision.  For some reason it’s mainly English speaking countries that add fluoride to public water supplies.

In Arizona, the Phoenix City Council Transportation and Infrastructure Subcommittee is considering ending fluoridation, to save money.  In that city people have been wanting to end fluoridation for awhile now. They claim studies show that it causes weight gain, muscle pains from thyroid problems, discoloration of teeth and that fluoride could damage bones and even eat away  tooth enamel (just the opposite of what our exalted U.S. medical industry claims).

However, in Pennsylvania, the leaders of the West Manheim Township recently voted four to one to continue fluoridating local tap water!
