As long as a person works, they continue to pay "wage taxes", even if decide to start collecting SS while they are working.

This is neither silly or unfair, since, as each year they continue to pay into the system, the higher their benefit goes up, so that they may see an increase in their SS beyond any cost of living increase.

I am assuming by a person's "check", you meant a paycheck. If she just receives a SS check, no, the only taxes taken out is the Federal Income Tax, if she requests it.

No, your social security entitlements are individual to you, you can only benefit from your husbands if he dies while you are married. If you had any children with your first husband you may be entitled to security points while you were looking after them, you need to check up on this. (By the way this is relevant to the UK only)

What was a significant flaw of the social security act?

One of the most important flaws of the social security act is that you have a maximum amount you can earn without penalty if you begin drawing your social security before your reach full retirement age. Why does the government want to penalize a person for earning more than the maximum amount allowed when, in fact, the more a person earns the more he will pay into social security. With the threat of social security going broke, you would think the government would encourage an early retiree to go back to work and earn as much as they want in order to put more into the social security fund.
