The gulf becomes deeper instead of the other way round.
À peu près, car il faut constater malgré tout que le fossé s'élargit inexorablement entre riches et pauvres.
I say more or less, because we must acknowledge that, in spite of everything, the gap between the rich and poor continues to grow inexorably.
Vous avez raison de dire qu'en examinant le PIB ou le PNB, par exemple, le fossé s'élargit et qu'il faut agir.
You are correct in saying, that on examining the GDP or the GVP, for example, that it is clear that the gap is widening and that something must be done about it.
