''How much do you consider is a fair price to effectively protect Australia? ''
from what?
keeping our trade routes with China safe = so we can trade with China
so, what exactly is it we are needing protection from? ------------ ffs don't tell me it's China
I trade parts with my neighbour Dave ----------- so I'm buying a gun to protect myself from Dave so I can keep the path between Dave's place and myself safe - so I can trade parts with Dave
makes perfect sense
gosh - I wonder what kind of defence I could by for a trillion if I wasn't worried about Dave?
Maybe I should think about giving a trillion to Eric ------- over the other side of town who wants to sell me a gun and told me that I should protect myself from Dave oh, and Eric asked me if it was ok for him to park the truck at my place ---------- for free
