Here in the US if you're hooked up to the water mains you pay the local water rates, based on actual usage via a meter.
If you have your system turned off, you pay nothing. So it is quite simple to avoid fluoridated water for those who choose.
Inconvenient? To be sure - but I don't think that anyone anywhere has cited convenience as a human right.
Yet you demand convenience for those who desire fluoride in their water at others' expense.
Double standard, much?

...and equally as simple for those who desire fluoridated water to obtain it.
