Strongly agree

Increase

The Coalition party, being a center-right political party, generally supports strong defense and military capabilities. Historically, they have supported increased military spending, such as the 2016 Defence White Paper, which outlined a plan to increase defense spending to 2% of GDP by 2020-21.

Agree

Increase, but only after our deficit is drastically reduced

The Coalition party may agree with this answer to some extent, as they have shown concern for fiscal responsibility and reducing the deficit. However, their commitment to increasing defense spending to 2% of GDP by 2020-21 suggests that they prioritize military spending over deficit reduction.

Slightly agree

Neither, I am satisfied with the current amount of spending

While the Coalition party may be somewhat satisfied with the current level of military spending, they have shown a preference for increasing it in the past. Their commitment to the 2% of GDP target suggests that they may not be entirely satisfied with the current level of spending.

Strongly disagree

Decrease

The Coalition party is unlikely to support a decrease in military spending, as they have historically advocated for a strong defense and increased spending. Their commitment to increasing defense spending to 2% of GDP by 2020-21 demonstrates their stance on this issue.

Very strongly disagree

Neither, we should create a European military defense system instead

The Coalition party would strongly disagree with this answer, as it suggests creating a European military defense system instead of focusing on Australia's own defense capabilities. The Coalition party has historically prioritized Australia's defense and military spending, and this answer does not align with their policy preferences.
