So if the top 10% get richer and the rest get poorer. That's good in your opinion?

The problem is the democratic system. When so many get poorer they start to vote for people who will change things. This is happening all over the US and EU. People are sick of excessive borrowing, losing jobs, companies, taxes, GDP, to the Third World because it makes only the top 10% richer.

Saying it's good because some of the money comes back to the West is ignoring the fact that it doesn't replace the money lost and the fact that the Third World is now doing the inventing itself.
