Talk:Economy of America (disambiguation)

More Spanish speakers imposing their politics and culture on English speakers.

Nobody who speaks english natively refers to the North and South American continents as America. This page is biased attempt by Spanish speakers who have a problem with The United States. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.87.73.190 (talk) 18:37, 5 August 2013 (UTC)

I agree. Why the heck was I redirected here?— Preceding unsigned comment added by 122.1.124.211 (talk • contribs)

It's because when a term is ambiguous we redirect to what they call a disambiguation page. America can mean any of the three things on this page, thus people who search for the ambiguous term have to tell us which of the three they meant. America is not just the United States. -DJSasso (talk) 17:16, 16 April 2014 (UTC)

Actually, America is the United States. It's by far the most common usage in English. And this is English Wikipedia. Also, if you want to disambiguate, the choice for the United States should be listed first. "American Economy" is in no way ambiguous.Correctron (talk) 06:22, 18 April 2014 (UTC)

Speaking as someone in an English speaking country who speaks English as their primary language. No the United States is not the only meaning of American. It is used here to mean either the United states economy or the more general North American one. That being said I don't particularity care about the order on this page so much as making sure that the term does redirect here. -DJSasso (talk) 12:05, 18 April 2014 (UTC)

Speaking as a native speaker from an English country, "America" exclusively means the United States 99.99999% of the time. Might I ask where you are from? The order is important because it is horribly misleading.Correctron (talk) 00:21, 25 April 2014 (UTC)
