What Percentage of the U.S. Energy comes from Oil?

[eilute]

Each American spends an average of X dollars per year on energy. On average, what percentage of this money is spent on oil?

I wonder if liposuction is an energy positive process. That is if the extracted fat has more energy than the energy used sucking it out. If it is, maybe there should be free lipo to every fatass in the US. We can reprocess the fat and make synthetic oil.

Good point. And that is definitely a renewable resource.

Hmm...66.6% seems a to be a tad high.

find out yourself. visit the bureau of economic data and look through the personal consumption expenditures for 2004 and then navigate down to non-durable goods then sift through till you hit light crude oil
