The first two options are essentially the same. Australia should have planned on an insane US destabilizing the global economy and built the necessary infrastructure.

Sure, the instability is America's fault, but it's on everyone else for not seeing it coming and planning accordingly.

Spending on prevention is never well received. Sure, we could save a shit load of money long term by funding exercise, but it would cost a heap and take a long time to see outcomes. If pre-war the government spent 10bn on holding extra fuel on-shore, everyone would politically kick off.
