I have little experience outside of the US, but the current standard of living in this country is as high as it has ever been and the trend line has been consistently up. In this country "rich" people get rich, but everyone benefits. I don;t think there is any basis for your statement as it applies to the US. In corrupt nations or nations with corrupt leaders, I know this is not always true.
