So this is a really rough estimate, but the average amount of money spent by an American household (according to Forbes magazine) is $43,395. The census bureau for 2000 said we have 105,480,101 household in the US. That would equal $4,577,308,982,895 (4.6 trillion) dollars a year total. This number would probably never hold up to scholarly research, but at least it's a rough number. Below are the revelant links.

T Boone Pickens, Oil Tycoon, had a tv commercial out a couple of years back that said "This is one problem we cannot drill our way out of" and was pushing alternative energy. In that add he said we are spending about 700billion a year on foreign oil, the greatest transfer of wealth in history. The world uses about 85 million barrels a day. The Iraq War was the tycoons positioning themselves to control that supply. We are pawns in the system of the wealthy. See a documentary called "Crude Awakening".
