maybe it is practical for you, but native born citizens dont have to have a SSN. there had been some posts regarding this in libertarian fora, also Neil McIver has a nice little website about how life without an ssn is :-)

Q: Under what conditions can my citizenship be revoked?
A: [From Muralidhar Rangaswamy, RANGASWAMY@zircon.plh.af.mil]
If your behavior is not well disposed to the good order and happiness
of the U.S. or if you concealed your wartime activities when applying
for visas to enter the U.S. after World War II. Also, for example you do
one of the following:
(a) Refusal to testify before a congressional committee regarding
alleged subversive activities within 10 years after becoming a
U.S. citizen.
(b) Establish permanent foreign residence within 1 year after becoming
a U.S. citizen
Note from Rich Wales, richw@yank.kitchener.on.ca
This provision was repealed on October 25, 1994, by
Public Law 103-416 (108 Stat. 4305). The old require-
ment that candidates for US citizenship must intend to
reside permanently in the US following naturalization
was also repealed by this same law.

(c) Membership in an outlawed organization within 5 years after becoming
a citizen.

Denaturalization proceedings may be instituted against you for (a)-(c).

of course, if you serve in a foreign army or commit acts of treason against the usa your citizenship may be revoked in any case, whether born or naturalized american.
