Paying a social security tax of 15% on my adjusted gross while already receiving a social security pension that cannot increase is very wrong. Tax reform is needed.

I agree. That is absurd. In your years you want to compensate for your lost years and you cannot add to your SS income simply because you are a petty SS does not make any sense. You work so hard to and not able to increase your SS income!!! Umh
I also think that the regressive structure of social security is ridiculous. Why cap the contributions? I'm not asking for a progressive structure but could it at least be flat? The guy making $118k/year pays the same amount as the guy making $500k/year, as contributions end at $118k earnings.
