Fluoridated water in Rutland, VT up for re-election, again

Future of fluoridated water once again on Rutland's Town Meeting Day ballot

Rutland resident Jack Crowther has been a longtime critic.

“You’re putting a drug, a medicine, in our water to treat tooth decay without the informed consent of the people,” Crowther said.

"Mandrake, have you ever seen a commie drink a glass of water?"


"THEY'RE PUTTING MEDICINE IN THE WATER!"


Also related, a Richmond, VT waterworks employee secretly lowered fluoride levels in the town's drinking supply for a decade.

EDIT: I should've updated this a month ago, but the town voted to keep fluoride.
