It reeks of hypocrisy and I won't be forced into participating through some draft.

Just so that I have a complete understanding of what you are saying...it it that you would not be willing to fight if a blockade of all imports and exports were established against Australia...even though this would alter your economy with prejudice? I know that Australia is a large continent but does it have enough ararable soil to feed its population...I suspect that it does...but are you willing to see Australia reduced to basic survival...because you do not believe in waging war for "economic" reasons?
