Because the rich almost always take from the poor that's how their share of the pie keeps growing..

Its not even clear that there is a really long run trend of their share of the pie growing (look at the great "robber barons" compared to the poor of their days or the before that the richest nobles and merchant families compared to the peasants and poor city dwellers.), but if it is, it is because the rich are participating in, or financing activities that create wealth. They aren't stealing it from the poor, or at least the vast majority of them are not. The long run trend is for the poor to also get wealthier.
