If Australian didn't sell iron ore to China there wouldn't be $380 bn for AUKUS in the first place.If anything, the Americans should be paying Australia for giving up sovereignty and placing their weapons here, not the other way around.
Politicians know this, but there are vested interested in individuals that public don't know about. Like Morrison now works for US defence companies. $18bn for US companies for vaccines that were never used. Australians are suckers.
