I almost think that it's intentionally obscured. It doesn't show up on your 1040 form calculations in an obvious way, and half of the tax is paid by your employer on your behalf. Therefore, it's not staring you in the face like it should be. And the cap isn't well advertised by the media, and politicians have an incentive not to tell people they're getting fucked.
