Perhaps you missed this: the meme says “if U.S. land mass were divided like U.S. wealth.” It’s a simile; it doesn’t mean that this really is the actual ratio that U.S. land is divided.
What? It does not imply that at all? Let me guess, you also think that the 1% own the entire northwestern corner of the country? And 40% of people live in a single city in Texas?
Edit: I’m sorry, this was unnecessarily rude and unnecessary in general.
The meme has nothing to do with land ownership, it’s giving a visual example of wealth differential by diving a map of the US into sections.
The meme literally says own in every section.
How else is anyone supposed to interpret the words presented to them?

I missed absolutely nothing. I read the exact words on the meme, which imply 100% of people own land.
Get real, 1% own property, while the other 99% have to rent it from the rich oligarchs and other rich fucks.
