A Roth IRA is supposed to be free of "all taxes", so I would guess that it is also free of social security tax, or else it would have a 15.3% tax on it. That would hardly be "free", but this is actually a good question. A regular IRA IS taxed upon withdrawal, but I don't know if it qualifies as "earned income" which is the only income that has to pay a social security tax.
