There is no requirement to have or use a social security number to live or work in the United States. The Social Security Administration will admit this to you IN WRITING if you write them via snail mail, or email them at http://www.ssa.gov The number IS required for EMPLOYMENT, but that is a term SPECIFICALLY DEFINED in Title 26, the Internal Revenue Codes. Working a regular job in the private sector in any of the now 50 united States doesn't constitute "employment" as defined in the revenue codes UNLESS THE WORKER VOLUNTARILY CHOOSES TO PARTICIPATE IN SOCIAL SECURITY. Employers are REQUIRED TO ASK for the SSN, but the worker is NOT REQUIRED TO PROVIDE ONE, unless he chooses to participate/pay into Social Security. Participation in Social Security would run afoul of the Constitution in the event that it was, by law, OTHER than 100% voluntary. Coercing people into "volunteering" is a wall of ignorance, fear, and corporate policy, but NOT any law.
