A good amount of the oil does go into gadgets. Energy, plastics, Amazon shipments, etc. In the U.S. natural gas is also the 2nd-largest fuel source for electricity generation (~30%, 2nd to coal at ~35%).

90% is fuel. Thanks for making me an idiot. You should add that burning that oil in your car helps the gandgets to sustain. You afford much more gadgets to yourself, once the car finishes burning all your oil. Right?
