Because the cost of it is paid by all those equally right to want to waste it another way.
I understand that it's my flaw to not be able to see, feel or "Get" how having the Queen on the money or a crown on the official stuff matters at all to life as an Australian. I just see it as an artifact from the birth or the nation.
A nation birthed through the violent dispossession and extermination of the original inhabitants and predicated on the transportation of people, many themselves the victims of violent dispossession at the hands of Crown forces.
Call me crazy, but that's not something I like being reminded of every day, especially when my own ancestors fall into one of those groups.
