Dr. Moolenburgh saw the battle against fluoridation as a training ground to remind people what must be done to protect their freedom. Fluoridation is a symptom of the decline of democracy and the rise of an absolutist technocracy. We will not be safe from fluoridation until it is eradicated everywhere in the world. They had been free of tyranny so long they did not recognize the danger. There were enough people left in The Netherlands who remembered the Nazi tyranny that they could see what was happening and knew what to do about it.
Freedom is a blessing that is acquired with great difficulty and lost with great ease.
Fluoridation is one of the ways of taking that freedom away . There are many other ways and most of them are infiltrating the free democracies of our day, but when you have learned to recognise one, you will recognise them all. The same pattern emerges time and again. It is the pattern of a small, arrogant elite posing as a public benefactor, using innocent fellow travellers as useful idiots and laughing to scorn the timid attempts to resist.
