I suspect there is a reason for that, just like there is a reason taxes are taken through payroll deduction for most wage earners.
If folks got all their "wages" then had to write a check (or do some other type of manual transaction) to the government every pay check there'd be a lot more paying attention to it.
Sort of the same mentality that worries about the size of the car payment and not the cost of the car itself.
