The MAGA clan is not known for being educated.

Yet some of them are capable of differentiating between the benefits of topical application and systemic consumption. 

Not sure why fluoride supplementation is a MAGA vs progressive sparring match but since it is I'll play along:

It now appears that fluoridated water turns children into liberals.

If flouridation hardens teeth so the kids get fewer cavities, then of course it stands to reason it hardens the rest of the bones in the body and makes them more brittle.  Old people then become more susceptible to fractures and the serious problems that can cause.

It's even simpler than that IMO, if you need supplementation (topically) then use it. 

I use it because I need to, the next more potent form (from what I use) is available by prescription only... so it is considered medication depending on concentration. 

The thing is, I don't expect my neighbour to use it if he doesn't need to... it's not that complicated, it's a topical application.... I don't think we should be putting Preparation H into our water supply simply because Robo needs to gargle with it either.
