This is also the section that can cause trouble for anyone who wants to try to remove or privatize Social Security. SS could be argued as a type of pension, paid into by anyone who gets a paycheck.

Could be... but FDR's administration argued that Social Security was a tax and not a pension at the program's inception, because it's Constitutionality was called into question. So you have that legal precedent to argue against. It can be reformed and repealed, like most programs.
