From The Washington Post: "11 of the worst policy ideas of 2014" - One of them in Wellington

From the The Washington Post's Wonkblog is this: "11 of the worst policy ideas of 2014".

And Wellington was third on the list!

From the article in Wonkblog:

The science is clear: Fluoride in water is a very good thing, because it prevents the decay of your teeth. The CDC heralds public water fluoridation campaigns as “one of the 10 great public  health achievements of the 20th century.” Nonetheless, 2014 was another year in which anti-fluoridation campaigners scored some victories. The Fluoride Action Network lists a number of U.S. localities that rejected public water fluoridation this year, including the village of Wellington, Florida, in Palm Beach County, home to some 60,000 people. Earlier this year, Wellington’s city council voted to end fluoridation 14 years after the practice initially started.
