$215 billion at the current price of $45 a barrel is 4.77 *BILLION* barrels of oil a day.

I'm intrigued how that deleted post linked economics figures to Oil consumption of that magnitude.

The USA are the highest oil consumers per head , eating just under a quarter of the world consumption , which is around 90 million barrels per day .

Out by a mile , as u say.
