Scripture: Proverbs 11:5-6 (NASB 1977)
"The righteousness of the blameless will smooth his way, But the wicked will fall by his own wickedness.

Commentary:
When leaders warn that a single chokepoint could jolt energy markets and trigger legal chaos, it highlights how fragile modern power really is. People feel it fast at the pump. Proverbs ties instability to treachery and greed, not just bad luck, and it exposes how quickly self-interest can trap those who depend on leverage and fear.
