UK - daily Echo - It's a dangerous precedent to set

ONE political leader (David Cameron) is calling for less "Big Government" and more emphasis on the individual.
People are becoming afraid to offer any help unless the state gives them permission.
One place to begin would be to stop the prime example of Nanny State interference where the authorities add the chemical fluoride to tap water supplies. This is not added to make the water safe to drink, but to bring about changes in the human body-a dangerous precedent. One size does not fit all, as some people may react badly to this chemical. No sensible doctor would prescribe medication for a patient he's never met, whose medical history he doesn't know, in a dosage over which there is no control.
The countries with the biggest drop in child tooth decay are Sweden, Netherlands, Finland and Denmark - who do not fluoridate.
The only time many politicians are interested in the public's view is just before an election, so now is a good time to tell them that we don't want compulsory mass medication against our will.
