No reason why they shouldn't.

They already do have to. Have for quite a long time now. Whether an employer obeys that law or not is another question...

No, some jobs it is not a requirement for social security numbers.

It's already a requirement in California, I think, or at least everyone I know has had to scan their social security card and turn it in...

What's the point? If they want to work, it's only hurting the economy to not let them.

thats how it is in Finland. :D

I think so for MOST jobs.. but like Fast food jobs and stuff like that... im a bit more relaxed i think.

No. I am not a citizen and don't have a social security number. I think my mom has one and so does my dad and sister, but most immigrants don't. We should be able to work no matter where we come from. There are plenty of other documents we could use. I've just always been against thinking that non-citizens shouldn't be able to work.

whoo-hoo...you go Dada...

I'm for because in my country there are illegal immigrants I call parasites. They feed off the money other people earn!
They work outside the economy, so they don't pay taxes. But they also tell the government and the Dutch IRS that they aren't working so they get money from the government to support themselves, while that's totally injustified!
Also they say they'd have 5 kids outside the country to get money from tax payers as well while those kids don't even exist!
My dad is now reaching the age of 67 and still works his ass off five days a week for what? so that illegal immigrants can get the 60% of his salary?! (he has to pay 60% taxes)

And we're not living that large at all! We've been saving money for 2 years to go on the next summer vacation and we live in an everage house next to a mailman and a secretary.

Holland is like a corn field. If you stick out financially just a little bit, you're mowed down just so that the immigrants who don't do a shit can go and buy white blackberries and scooters?

Hmm... a little off topic... but yeah it was triggered by Dada's response. Not that I have a grudge against immigrants or anything. Just against the ones who are parasites.

BUT the ones who don't have a social security number but who have to get a job because otherwise there is no money for them should be able to work while getting a social security number.
But if they refuse to get one, then they should be fired. You live in that country because it can make you better, so you should do your best to do something in return for that country.

Not against immigrants, just illegal
ones working here. I think you should have to prove citezenship OR that you are a legal immigrant.
