Rich and poor are not definite terms.  To understand how inequality changes over time, you have to talk about percentiles, shares of wealth, and shares of income.  It's math, then history.

Do Bezos or Musk have anywhere near the power of William Randolph Hearst?   I'll answer that no.  Not even in the same ball park.  

Did Hearst have anywhere near the money of Bezos or Musk?  I'll answer that one also no.  Not even in the same ball park. 

We've always had rich, powerful people.  It has nothing to do with some mathematical construct involving percentiles, shares of wealth, or shares of income.
