It has always been that way. The difference is that now it is almost impossible for smaller clubs to make the big time and stay. And at least before, the big clubs weren't gerrymandering the competitions to make sure they played in Europe every season. The point is that as leagues become more and more profitable, the teams with the money will simply make GOBS of more money while the rest stay where they are. It happens in every league that doesn't have constraints on it.
