The point is that flouride has the same effect on your teeth no matter how many hectares of lifeless desert happen to be controlled by your government.
Interesting, though I think you may have missed a good deal of my own point. Regardless, I wasn't actually commenting on the fluoride situation, I was commenting on the belief that American exceptionalism is the reason we don't look at Europe and other countries for a slew of solutions that won't work here. It had nothing to do with fluoride, so I think your comment and hostility are a bit off the mark.
My point is that those that continually point out 'but some things don't apply to the US because X and Y' are mostly themselves just falling into the same trap and almost never actually explain why X and Y change anything, making their 'defense' just more of the same.
