"Not one square inch ... was made by them" Neither was a lump of coal, nor an ounce of iron ore, nor a grain of wheat ever "made" by anyone. If you trace the supply chain back far enough, all materials are free - the cost lies in digging them out, smelting them, growing them, processing them, transporting them. Does that affect anyone's right to own them? And at work I got paid for the use of "my" time, of which I couldn't create so much as a second. How is land any different?
