>> Also, only 7.5% comes out of your paycheck, the employer pays the other half
You might delude yourself that this "other half" is paid by the employer, but in reality your employer takes that cost into account when employing you, so they offer you lower gross salary because of that. In other words: it's still paid by you, just indirectly.
