You earned however much the state says you've earned legally; the state makes the laws. Every cent you've made is off the back of the state and at the state's whims, so the state gets to decide how much of its money it will take back, and how much of its money you get to keep as an incentive to keep helping others. If you claim you somehow 'deserve' the millions you are making, then you also 'deserve' to get taxed. You can't have it both ways.
