Talk:Economics
The last sentence of the first paragraph is neither a sentence nor easily repaired. Canuck 22:44, 30 July 2008 (EDT)

- "The United States economic policy, set down in the Constitution and inspired by enlightenment thinkers." There is no verb related to the subject. I don't understand what the string of words means. However I don't see an easy way of fixing it either--MCrowe 23:36, 30 July 2008 (EDT)
- Ah, thanks. I was looking that the first sentence, rather than the last. I fixed it.--Aschlafly 23:49, 30 July 2008 (EDT)
I think the sentence describing the difinition 'the allocation of scarce resources' as socialist should be removed. The meaning of the phrase seems to have been misunderstood- regardless of the views of the individual professor mentioned, the term is widely accpeted as one of the definitions of economics. Allocation does not only refer to allocation by the government but may, and usually does, also refer to allocation by the market mechanism - Adam Smith's 'invisable hand'. This second use of the term allocation certainly is not socialist. Geneya 13 October 2008 (EDT)
European sovereign-debt crisis
I can not find anything about the European sovereign-debt crisis on Conservapedia --Alex00 14:32, 26 March 2013 (EDT)
"diversify export-oriented sectors"
The article never defines what this is. Presumably, "diversifying export-oriented sectors" means don't rely on just one customer. It sounds like a pitch for expanded markets and globalization. On the hand, tariffs & economic sanctions actually force a country to diversify. RobSZelensky Must Go! 23:34, November 9, 2025 (EST)
- Presumably, this was added (without defining what it is) as part of the "Russia is a gas station masquerading as a country" narrative. RobSZelensky Must Go! 00:09, November 10, 2025 (EST)
