Rich people become wealthier is a net positive not a loss. It doesn't make the less wealthy any poorer, overall (with obvious exceptions like becoming rich through rent-seeking, extortion or fraud, but those are exceptions not the norm).

the corporatacracy continues to ship jobs overseas and across the border

We have higher employment and lower unemployment now than in the early eighties recession. We also had low unemployment before this recession. There is no general trend towards higher and higher unemployment. There also is no trend to lower and lower employee compensation, rather the reverse.

But stomp hard on people for creating wealth which much higher taxes, and you might see some of those negative trends your crying about actually happen.
