David, It is true that drinking water with fluoride is safe. But, fluoride is neither a medical treatment nor a medication, it is a mineral that is present naturally in all water that in very small amounts provides a known health benefit to everyone--young and old, rich or poor. Fluoridation is also known to be cost saving for communities, with fewer people missing school and work, and fewer people seeking emergency room services for dental pain. So David from a medical/health perspective, I find it to be highly unethical to suddenly and without warning remove such a benefit from the community and all of the people who are relying on it. Wouldn't you agree?
