[PEN-L:5105] Two queries

A friend is finishing a book on racism and had the following questions.

1) What portion of the world's annual use of resources is consumed by the
United States?

2) What is a reasonable estimate for the long-term total cost of the S&L
bailout including interest? I thought $300-500; he thought $1 trillion.

Can anyone give me these numbers or direct me to resources with them
either directly or through the list.

Many thanks.
