The great majority of people get their water from water providers who do various treatments to the water, whether it is filtration, flocculation, chlorination, etc. Even well water, if from a public system, has to meet certain water quality standards. Otherwise, the well is shut down, thus "interfering with nature." Or the well water may be filtered by the user with a Point Of Use filter, for example built into a refrigerator or on the faucet.

So if the majority of people get their water from municipal water treatment facilities that means that everyone's water is treated?
In response to the bolded question, no our government was not trying to make the HPV vaccine mandatory. No vaccines are mandatory, and it depends on the state and local level in regards to what vaccines they require for entrance to public schools. Also, most areas allow you to opt out of vaccines for relgious or even personal reasons and if you opt out for religious reasons they cannot ask your religion or request any other information.
I know quite a few people who do not give vaccines to any of their children.
But on the HPV info, I would not give it to my child either. This is why they do these initial trials overseas because most Americans and other western nations don't care about poor third world children being killed by vaccines too much. This is not the first vaccine to have caused deaths and won't be the last. Unfortunately it is the price of progress in the fight against disease.
Rick Perry thinks this vaccine is perfectly fine and wanted to subject all Texas girls to it. Imagine if he was oor president and somehow this country under him remained as bad as or got even worse than it is now. You might see MANDATORY Gardasil vaccines right here in the "free" USA.

That would be one of the few good things about him. We'd have fewer cases of several kinds of cancer and a reduction in genital warts.
Having been in the military and receiving my full complement of vaccinations I now realize how foolish and ignorant I was at the time. The problem is that so many of us are raised to believe what we are spoon fed by conventional medicine. So many people never dare question or even THINK to question what they are told. It is only after many, many years of reading and reading and listening and watching that you come to realize that in their eyes we are simply here to provide an outlet for drug therapy and expensive (and usually unnecessary and ineffective) medical procedures.
People MUST take the time and make the effort to educate themselves to the truth. I am so amazed that, so far, my exposure to vaccinations and conventional medicine in the past has not resulted in something life-threatening. But I know, that if that does happen, I now have the knowledge I need to fight it and win. It saddens me the people who refuse to open their eyes.
I have known so many people who fail to question or learn and they suffer horribly and unnecessarily at the end of their lives.

You SHOULD question everything, it's psychologically healthy. What is not psychologically healthy is just going against what you've been told instead of informing yourself about the topic and making your own decision.
Oh, vaccines cause autism? Welp, not going to vax my kid then, okay.
I agree, people need to open their eyes, it is quite sad.

Not to mention most people with wells have some kind of system in their home that treats or softens the water before it comes through to the user.

'most people'? Maybe in the few areas where the ground water has a lot of junk in it from mining or haz-mat spills.
We have our water tested, our most recent test was a week ago, most of it's results are on my desk [all but a couple things that had to be sent out of state for the testing]. We have nothing that needs to be filtered from our water.
As far as I know most of the USA has clean water.
There are a isolated spots where junk has been dumped and the ground water has been contaminated. But mostly the 'worst' is hardness.
'most' wells do not need any filtering.
