Privatized anything in the US always leads to enshittified garbage.

You rent each number on your ssn individually, if you miss a payment then you lose a random number. When you only have 1 number left you get sent to an island where you have to kill 8 people. For every person killed you get their respective number, if you manage to kill 8 then your new ssn is composed out of their numbers.
If your new ssn is a duplicate of an existing number then a duel is arranged between you and the existing holder of said number unless either party pays the ssn company 9 million dollars for a new number.

Who leaked the Michael Bloomberg reform plan?

Yes, and everyone can look up used and empty SSN, so you know what numbers other random island people could be looking for.
The bad guy isn’t the government though, it’s some random guy that keeps abducting other people instead of killing them, and lets other people get the kill to avoid the 9 mill/duel scenario
The main character is super fine with all of this for some reason, and ends up killing the number cuck, but that’s the main characters last number. Main character ends up with the same number as the president of the United States, who for some reason doesn’t use the buyout option, probably because he’s an asshole.
