Why the rich gets richer and the poor gets poorer???

Question

One or two word answer is sufficient.

Answer 1

I hate to burst your bubble, but the poor are NOT getting poorer. Census data, linked below, shows that over time, both the rich and poor, and all other income groups, are getting richer! There may be short term fluctuations, but over decades, the poor are getting richer.

Furthermore, all income groups tend to move in the same directions at the same time. In other words, when the rich are getting richer, the poor are too, and when the poor are getting poorer, so are the rich.

True, the rich get richer faster.

All this crap about the gap between rich and poor and the poor getting poorer is just a smoke screen used by people to instigate class warfare. What difference does it make if the rich get richer faster than you are, as long as you are getting richer too?
