No. Let's correct this verse...When the righteous rule, the righteous rejoice and the wicked groan. When the wicked rule, the righteous groan and the wicked rejoice.

WHY DO PRICES KEEP RISING?

Some reasons given by experts are: Sharp increases in oil prices. Shortages of supplies. Excess spending through debt on the part of people and governments. The reasons are varied and complex.

However, the Bible clearly identifies one of the basic causes. It says: “When the wicked are in authority [as rulers] the people groan.” (Prov. 29:2,) It is obvious that people are ‘groaning’ under heavy financial pressures. But is the Bible right in blaming those in authority?

For one thing, it is widely known that some governments will destroy truckloads of food to keep

Yes! Besides the phrase speaking for itself look at the good, just, believed leaders and political parties that were in power and consequently the common people were happy.

But on the other hand when tyrants, evil dictators were in power, the common people were miserable. If you think about it good examples are the number of violent overthrows of the different governments.

Yes it is. When people do the right things and do good in life most people are happy for them.
As for the wicked part, all you have to do is look at our current administration.
