Should our public drinking water be floridated?

[Toots]

I have a very close friend that lives in Alaska and he says they are having a huge fight about floridating their water supply. He says it is going to be voted upon by the people but that there was a lot of evidence that states floride can hurt small children and older folks as well. He says their water there is absolutely pure and the government wants to put chemicals in it and he is opposed. Does the government have that right?
