No, the poor are also getting richer: https://fred.stlouisfed.org/series/WFRBLB50107 You're looking at what percent of the total wealth pie do the poor get. But the pie itself is growing, and so is _everyones_ slice of the pie. Maybe you think its an inherent problem that some people get a bigger percent of the pie than others. But its objectively untrue to say that the poor are getting poorer. | ||
