Is "the rich getting richer" a problem?

The rich get richer by getting more money, and that's some more money that someone else can't have. So there you go, it's a problem because other people will have less money available.

That's now how money works.  The economy isn't a zero sum game... wealth is created and destroyed.  So it's totally possible for somebody to get richer while also making other people more rich via the creation of more wealth.

Depends on the rate of changes. I really haven't looked into things but to me it often sounds like the rich are getting richer quite rapidly which hints at them getting richer quicker than more wealth is created. But, like I said, I haven't looked into things so I could be horribly wrong.
