<hr><P><b>Comments:</b></p>I have attached six pages of information regarding use and abuse of social security numbers.   I have a broad based background in many types of businesses and I have done payroll accounting and payroll taxes and filed tax forms for businesses.  I am a FLMI, CLU, and NASD registered representative, and I have volunteered and served on several community task forces.  After reading my response in the attachment, if you would like a law-abiding, knowledgeable, and willing citizen, to serve on a task force to help resolve the social security issues, I would be more than happy to serve.  I am very good at offering solutions and doing research.</body></html>
