Because, the cost to rewards ratio is unbelievably high in this case. Putting fluoride into water is super cheap and the public benefit it creates is huge.
This is especially important for parts of the population that depend on others for their healthcare (kids). If your parents didn’t teach your to brush your teeth, creating good habits and providing the right materials, the fluoride is going to do a lot for this children.
You’re just talking out of your ass. Why should anyone believe you? Where’s your data to support the idea that “most people brush”, and further that there isn’t any benefit for people who do brush?
I mean, whatever money value you want to attach, you’re still burning plenty of fossil fuels needlessly in it’s manufacture, transport and application. Takes up people’s time which could potentially be spent on more important things also. Just to spitball a few things that could be gained.

Uh… the whole point I’m making is that the benefit is almost nonexistent.
Are you basing your opinion entirely upon what sounds better to you politically, instead of actually knowing anything about the issue?

Now explain the downside. Given how cheap it is, I don’t see the problem even if you’re correct that the benefit is almost nonexistent.

You made a typo, fixed it for you
Fluoride does have some downsides, the major upside is dental caries prevention, because of the high carbohydrate default diet caries are very common
Your point is wrong.
