The milch cow story

A group of milch cows are entertaining in a hotel after a days hard work and some "Anal polyps" (Borrowed term) pop up and pump some armour piercing rounds in their bodies.
Poor ones ran here and there but no one came to help, they couldn't help themselves as the law had made provisions such, that in case of an attack like this, the milch cow couldn't help but die a sorry death.
Some were trapped inside the hotel for days. Animal farm media and news papers were abalaze with the story but then every one is busy chewing the fodder again, noone give a heed to the long gone Milch Cows ,for, there are plenty more to bank upon and collect the precious milk (Tax).
Every one in the Animal farm is important except the Milch cow breed, new taxes are planned based on how good the milch cow is making milk so that she can be milked more, new schemes are launched to cut her fodder a bit more, and surprisingly no grant, nothing comes to the poor milch cow, though it goes for industries, irrigation,fertilizers, and god knows what other things.
The Milch cow is step child, does the best to get the worst.
End of Milch cow story - Borrowed from a friend.

Working class a Third grade citizen : We pay the taxes and pay more taxes

I live in India and we proudly try to sing "Saare jahan se accha", though whenever I think about taxes, VAT, service tax it turns out that its the service class who pays tax on income and then also pays VAT to buy things from already tax paid money, on top of that service providers deduct service tax from the consumer only, I hardly can sing that anymore.

I was looking out to buy a decent car for commuting to office, and the options I have are far more expensive then they are in Europe and yet the quality is not upto the mark ,they are expensive because they are highly taxed.
On the other hand agricultural instruments have relaxed taxation , there are subsidies, there are provision for owing a gun license for protection of crop and fields (protection of means of earning and life) but for service class there is no such provision as if ours life is not in danger.There are terrorists in and around cities aint they city based animals from whom we need to defend ourselves ?
We the service class are there to provide necessary money to run the system, keep toiling hard and live under burden of taxes, deprived of basics ,for, this is a country of farmers and soldiers long live soldier and love live farmer.
We are struck in between somewhere as er bees, collecting the honey and supporting the colony.
Why there is not a urban and city regulation and a relaxed policy for better vehicles , service taxes so that one can have a fair share of what others are having in similar amount of money in other parts of world ?

Below are the cars I would like to own, I have the money they are worth, but I can't muster the amount they are taxed for.
