This study seems to say that.

Where I live they will not flouridate the water - it is considered "mass medication" and we have a large number of Mennonite and Amish that oppose it onthe grounds of their religion. Maybe they were right all along???

Children scored inferior IQ's even when fluoride levels were similar to that added to U.S. water supplies to prevent tooth decay(1).

"As the fluoride levels in drinking water increased, the IQ fell and the rates of mental retardation and borderline intelligence increased," write researchers Xiang, et al.

Our kids are "stupid" because our public educational system encourages kids to perform at minimum standards...and their parents don't give a damn enough about them to make sure they are educated.
