In reply to the discussion: Florida surgeon general calls for halting fluoride in water, echoing RFK Jr. [View all]Bluetus
(475 posts)26. Absolutely. Let them see all their kids' teeth fall out by age 30
Why are we trying to convince these morons of anything? We should be pushing for legislation that says insurance companies don't have to pay for cavities in states that do not fluoridate their water. We should be pushing for legislation that says, no Federal money for flood relief in states that deny climate change. And so on.
Florida homeowner insurance is more than twice the national average, and that is 100% caused by the rapidly increasing insurance losses directly resulting from climate change.
They made their bed. Let them lie in it. Stop trying to save the morons from themselves. What we should be doing is pushing to stop subsidizing the morons.

I certainly agree, but then we have yet to see TFG held responsible for anything. I really don't get it.
