The same reason every other moron in america asks you for it, 'to prove you are who you say you are.' -- aparently photo identification, address verification, date of birth and mother's maiden name just isn't enough any more.. yet you can get anything you want with none of that info and just a name and SSN... the sheeple are stupid, but there is no law requiring you to provide this information and you can always take your business elsewhere.
