Very sad. I guess this data is for the US, figures... Though the same trend is probably true in many 'developed' countries and even worse in undeveloped countries.

Here's some info which confirms it is US data.

but does this graph mean the poor don't get poorer?

I guess it depends on how you define it. The poor are getting poorer relative to the rich. But I think generally their purchasing power has increased. Though I don't know for sure.
