On the plus side, I smell a great opportunity for a longitudinal population study. 🤔

    It is possible to get fluoride-free toothpaste but it’s a bit of a niche/specialty item.

        Seems like it would be the opposite. It’s not like the government is buying the toothpaste, and sane people are going to be needing proper toothpaste to compensate for the lack of fluoride in their water.

          Key word there is sane.As we saw with the last election there is a sizable chunk of the US population that that label doesn’t apply to.

              Well no, many of them will have only decided they have a problem with fluoride now that Dear Leaders proxy in the FDA has decided it’s a problem. And if you think for one minute the pharmaceutical companies won’t all rush out new fluoride free versions of their existing toothpaste brands to try to get a chunk of those morons money you haven’t been paying attention to corporate America for the last century.
