The word “Democracy” has lost its meaning in Australia. Our state governments are poisoning our drinking water without asking their citizens whether they want it or not. They act like an undemocratic totalitarian bunch of know-it-alls, and take advice from their health bureaucrats that is decades out of date. Their fallacious claim is that fluoridated water will “cure” tooth decay, but if we look at Tasmania (see below) which has been fluoridated for over 50 years, covering 83% of the population, their dental health is the worst in the country. Tooth decay results from poor dental hygiene and a poor diet - particularly the excessive consumption of soft drinks - NOT a lack of fluoride.
In Mildura, a regional city in north-western Victoria, Australia, A Voice of Australia Fluoride Referendum showed that 94% of the population were against their water being fluoridated. Despite this abundantly clear message, the Victorian government ignored the will of the people and is going ahead with fluoridating their water. They must have removed the word “Democracy” from their vocabulary.
Why on earth would a government want to fluoridate all of our water when a person, according to World Vision, uses 282 litres of water a day and is supposed to drink 2 litres of water per day, and many don’t drink that amount? So, 280 litres of fluoridated water that we use for the shower, flushing the toilet, washing the dishes, washing our clothes etc goes down the drain and finishes up in the ocean and our reef.
A large number of people in Australia have dentures, is fluoridated water good for “denture health” or do our pot plants need to be watered with fluoridated water? A cup of tea contains 4 Mg of fluoride; it would be cheaper to drink tea than to poison our water? It just doesn't make any sense.
The uninformed people who still believe that water fluoridation is effective should read the book by investigative journalist, Christopher Bryson, “The Fluoride Deception.” The many people to whom I lent this book said, “Wow!” to what they discovered. – Werner

Following is what Sonja Hardy wrote about the book. I quote:
Do you enjoy tales of intrigue, conspiracy and corruption? Then The Fluoride Deception by Christopher Bryson won’t disappoint. It’s a very well written, meticulously researched expose´ of the history of fluoridation, which Dr Robert Carton (formerly of the US Environmental Protection Agency) has described as “the greatest case of scientific fraud of this (20th) century, if not of all time”. It’s a history of “greed, collusion, personal aggrandizement, corporate and government cover-up,” littered with human tragedy and the tattered careers of scientists who dared to try to expose the truth.
“The Fluoride Deception" reveals how a secretive group of powerful industries, all of which faced extensive litigation for fluoride pollution, collaborated with officials from the National Institute of Dental Research to launder fluoride’s public image.” It also points out the significant and wide-ranging health concerns of long-term consumption of even minute quantities of this poison, for its supposed benefit in preventing tooth decay.
There is growing scientific evidence that consuming fluoridated water provides little, if any benefit to dental health, and that the risks far outweigh any possible benefit. If you value your health and that of your loved ones, educate yourself about water fluoridation, and help to spread the word. The Fluoride Deception is a good place to start. I found it compulsive reading – as good as any conspiracy novel you’d ever read. Unfortunately, however, this is not a work of fiction. - Unquote.
Now let us look at some Tasmanian facts, by courtesy of DANIELLE BLEWETT. 20/08/2009. This should convince the most ardent pro fluoridationist that water fluoridation doesn’t work and is an absolute waste of money. I quote:
BRING out your teeth!
Tasmanians have some of the worst teeth in Australia - with a tooth being pulled once every three minutes. The Federal Government urged Tasmanian parents to get their kids to the dentist quick smart.
This year Medicare Australia sent out 38,100 vouchers to Tasmanians, each valued at $153.45 for teenagers to get a preventative dental health check-up. Families will get a voucher each calendar year and this year's vouchers are valid until December 31.
To be eligible, a teenager must be entitled to receive Medicare benefits and be aged 12 to 17 years.
The voucher covers one annual preventative check consisting of an oral examination, a scale and clean, fluoride treatment, oral hygiene instruction, dietary advice and or fissure seal.
"Teenagers need to present their voucher when they have this check," Medicare Australia's Mark Jackson said. According to the Australian Health and Medical Research Council: 11.2 per cent of Tasmanians aged 25 to 44 wear dentures, almost double the national average.
A tooth is extracted every three minutes in public dental services around Australia. Tasmania has the highest percentage of people wearing a denture in the nation.
The rate of 23.1 per cent is 4.6 per cent higher than national average of 18.5 per cent. In all the age categories from 25 to 65-plus, Tasmania is significantly above the national average. 41 per cent of Tasmanians in the 45 to 64-year-old category have dentures, which is 12 per cent above the national average. Unquote.
An old bottle label reveals that Fluoride is used to kill round worm in pigs. While Tasmania’s pigs might be free of round worm, it is certainly not free of tooth decay. According to an article in the “The Australian” some time ago, NSW is not in a better “state” as far as tooth decay is concerned. – Werner
And here is what the Hon. James Killen, (deceased) former Australian Cabinet Minister said: “I believe, and I believe passionately, that it is not the duty of the State to dose its people like cattle." 1964, Hansard page. 1142. (And dosing us like cattle is exactly what they are doing. – Werner)
