just to note and think about:

1st: maybe profits are the stories what companies make up for tax offices and thus they shrink constantly just to pay less, nowadays often due to “licenses” beeing payed to same-company-substructures that are then taxed in tax-havens at a fixed shamingly low rate per year no matter how much it actually was.

2nd: maybe managers pay themselves huge boni for enabling the company to save huge amounts of taxes (see 1st above), thus average (not median) income rises (not asked in the question though)

3rd: maybe banks print more money for richies to let you work for basically free for them, thus things get overall more pricy thus gdp rises.

4th: maybe its economists “job” to come up with complex artificial stories and mathmatical calculations to make governments and “you” believe that you actually “profit” from beeing ripped off. (not asked for this answer too, but is included in the answer however)

maybe, just maybe ;-)
