Is paying taxes for everything in India affecting you? How do you manage?

Hi all,

I am a software engineer Off lately everything has become so costly and it feels that we are paying almost thrice than we used to pay 4-5 years back.

And to add to that, with UPI transactions, sometimes I lost track of where my money is actually going.

Does that happen to you all? How do you manage?

Will voting solve all the problems?
I want genuine, deeply thought answers. No biases against any government. I want to know what I can do and not what others can do for me.
