    Default Huge victory against fluoride in Australia


    (NaturalNews) Nearly 200,000 Australians have been released from the medical slavery that is artificial water fluoridation thanks to a major governmental policy change. The Liberal National Party (LNP) government of the Australian state of Queensland has not only cut $14 million of funding that had previously been used for fluoridation, but has also decided to allow local councils to decide for themselves whether or not to fluoridate, a move that has already prompted the northern city of Cairns to end its water fluoridation program.

    As reported by The Australian, former "One Nation" member of parliament (MP) Rosa Lee Long, who is now mayor of the north Queensland Tablelands Regional Council, successfully lobbied LNP to end a longstanding policy that compelled local communities to fluoridate without approval from local residents. The government of Queensland last year also ended a policy that required larger communities to fluoridate their water, which is similar to existing fluoridation mandates in California and elsewhere.

    So by the middle of March, Cairns' more than 150,000 area residents will no longer be exposed to fluoride chemicals in the water, making it the seventh community in Queensland to end water fluoridation so far this year. Murgon, Wondai, Kingaroy, Nanango, Blackbutt, and South Burnett have all ended their water fluoridation programs since January which, combined with the area population of Cairns, represents nearly 200,000 people who will no longer be forcibly medicated with an unapproved drug.

    "If people want to have access to fluoride, they need to take that up with their dentists," said a local Cairns council spokeswoman about the policy change. "The decision has been made ... [fluoride] shouldn't be forced on people without consent."

    It's Time to STOP it here in America!

    Water fluoridation is a peculiarly American phenomenon. It started at a time when Asbestos lined our pipes, lead was added to gasoline, PCBs filled our transformers and DDT was deemed so “safe and effective” that officials felt no qualms spraying kids in school classrooms and seated at picnic tables. One by one all these chemicals have been banned, but fluoridation remains untouched.

    For over 50 years US government officials have confidently and enthusiastically claimed that fluoridation is “safe and effective.” However, they are seldom prepared to defend the practice in open public debate. Actually, there are so many arguments against fluoridation that it can get overwhelming.

    Reminds me of Dr Strangelove and I believe it was Slim Pickins who played the crazy military guy who ultimately rode the bomb out of the plane. He was always ranting about our enemies polluting "our precious bodily fluids". Still funny.

    Close, it was General Jack Ripper, played by the late great Sterling Hayden.

    Pickens played Major Kong, the B-52 pilot.

    It was Slim Pickins who rode the bomb but it was George C. Scott as the bat**** crazy general who was always spouting off about our enemies polluting our precious bodily fluids. And it was Peter Sellers playing a Brit observer who shot the Coca-Cola machine. Haven't seen that flick in a while but can't see how it could not still be funny.

    Damn! I thought it was George C. Scott playing General Buck Turgidson. But now that I think about it, he was the president's adviser, not the SAC commander. It's probably been at least 25-30 years since I saw that flick and my memory isn't what it used to be.

    I have an enlarged prostrate so they are welcome to as much of mine as they fancy. I seem to have way too much these days.

    I think this is pretty cool. Lots of us have seen and heard people with your ideas, on bizarre reality shows and the funny places on the internet, but most times, theres no chance of a real interaction.

    But please consider...Schopenhauer wasn't talking about UFO's, bigfoot or chemtrails...His thoughts were much more diverse. Not so much the conspiracy type you might think, evident by your use of his quote to support your position. I'd argue that he would think you're off base.

    And of course he's wrong, when he speaks of "all truth". Some truths, as sold, yes, but not all truths.
