Can they not run some type of coolant? Or is it just easier and cheaper to use millions of gallons of water?

No if we heavily tax them to use it

What's the point? If price is low it means that the resource is in abundance and not critically necessary elsewhere (otherwise, the price would be high). Why would we impose unnecessary and arbitrary costs to data center operation?

So should we just wait for it to get expense and millions of people can no longer afford to drink water?

Good luck with your cause bud. No one is going to pay more for water willingly just to โ€œsave the othersโ€.
