SAN FRANCISCO (Reuters) - Это верующий пишет: "I don't believe in it, I don't like it, I think it is Satanic," Jonathan Hansen said in a telephone interview, adding that to date he has paid his Social Security taxes. "I belong to a religion that will take care of me. I don't need the Social Security system and I don't want it. It violates my religious beliefs and it violates the teachings of my church as I interpret them."

А вот и научный ответ: "We affirm the dismissal of these claims because Hansen's complaint fails to specify the particular statutes and regulations requiring use of an SSN (Social Security number) that he objects to, but instead seeks a general declaration that he and his son are entitled to never use an SSN," Judge Michael Hawkins wrote for a three-judge panel. "The government has a compelling interest in maintaining a sound social security and tax system, and that the SSN requirement -- with its limited exceptions -- is narrowly tailored to this interest."

Справка: The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, as the Mormon church is formally called, teaches its members that "If ye are prepared, ye shall not fear" and encourages members to prepare for emergencies such as by stocking a year's supply of food. It also teaches followers to help other church members in need.

Надо записаться.
