OIL:
stockcharts.com[g,a]daclnnay[d20010120,20050330][p]&pref=G
Jan 22, 2001: $32.19 a barrel
March 29, 2005: $54.23 a barrel

68% increase in the cost of a barrel of oil. Certainly short of 100%.

Adjusted for inflation,
data.bls.gov
that $32.19 would be $34.86 now or a 55% increase.

Wrong again, as usual.
