I'm glad you enjoyed paying double at the pumps, I sure didn't.
You might as well credit Obama with making the sun rise in the morning and be just as accurate in your assessment of the situation.

1. Gas prices are down now because demand is down.

Trying to blame your troubles on the Corporate boogy man (who probably provided the majority of the stuff around you at the moment) is to ignore reality.
