“do you really care if they use herbal drops with success?”
Of course not. I care that they LIBEL people - researchers/dentists and politicians - as doing something “evil” by adding a tiny bit of some chemical (ALL things are chemicals, BTW) to their water. I care that they pass themselves off as knowing all about this stuff as if they are experts, yet don’t use any common sense. I don’t see people dropping dead all around us.
“Do you really believe the government would not steer the masses wrong?”
I believe we have to be wary of gov, but I don’t think by and large it is “evil”, per se - we have not reached that point. Stupid, often, yes, and pointless. I don’t like them telling me I can’t buy a nice big toilet or a normal old-fashioned light bulb, which we all know work perfectly well. In those cases, they’re trying to help “the Environment”, NOT the People. Which doesn’t matter.
“Do you really see a problem with people choosing to disagree with crap being ADDED to our drinking water?”
See above. Public health things have been happening a long time, and by and large it’s been a benefit. I just don’t like people disparaging whole swaths of learned people on a subject they frankly, know next to nothing about. It’s a joke to compare Joe Schmoe knowing squat about Fl to Dr. Dentist. Which in fact is how this whole thing started - not because of some Democrat wag.

or mercury thermometers! I was working in an elementary school one day years ago when county personnel came swooping in like a SWAT team to collect all mercury thermometers. crikey.
