There is no doubt that the U.S. overconsumes, However, IMO, your statement is irrelevant.
Population has some significance; whether we are a continent or a country makes no difference. Australia has a population of approx. 20.4 million. The U.S. population is more than 14 times that, at 301.1 million.
