How to Avoid a Recession: Cut Down on Foreign Oil

Ok, I'm confused! I keep hearing how we as a nation MUST conserve oil but in reality the amount of oil we use per day SHOULD be quite less then 2 years ago. The housing industry is in the dumps which means less fuel (gas, oil ect) to power the kilns for drying the lumber or less fuel for the trucks to deliver the materials or less fuel for the copper smelters or aluminium smelters or less fuel for the mining industry. Or less fuel that the unemployed carpenters, laborors, drywall, plumbers, electricians ect were using! So would someone tell me where in the hell all that oil we were using is now going?
