First, even many, many of those people who had withholding from paycheck throuh the year, and then find they are a little short of what they ultimately owe (for whatever reason - other income, good investing, claim to have too many exemptions on withholding, etc.) have a great deal of trouble getting even those small sums to pay the tax. They are - like so many - perpetually broke and can't/don't save money. They would be broke even if they had more money, always will be. (They would spend the money they need to pay taxes...but they need that money to py taxes...where will it come from?) And of course, the government needs the income through the year too...it pays it's bills all the time, not just annually.

Can my employer garnish my check for money missing?

Unfortunately, there is not a universal answer to this question. Each state has its own laws governing an employer's ability to garnish an employee's paycheck due to money missing. Some states allow it, some states don't. So, it depends on the state in which you live. The federal government does not have a law that either allows or prohibits employers from deducting missing money from an employee's paycheck.
