They are false claims, and they are definitely unsupported claims. You provided not a drop of support for your claim that "the rich are getting richer at the expense of the poor". You provided data and arguments to support the claim that the rich are getting richer, and some argument that the poor are getting poorer, but neither of those is the same as "the rich are getting richer at the expense of the poor". The details of your argument aren't very relevant considering if you accept all the information and ideas as true it still doesn't support your conclusion, but rather a different related conclusion. This is what you are using en.wikipedia.org or if your point is that if the richer are getting richer and the poor are getting poorer than one fact must cause the other, you are committing this fallacy en.wikipedia.org
