> In America a company is considered an individual/has a social security number correct?
No, in America (as everywhere else corporations exist, since this is the very definition of a corporation) a corporation is considered a legal person (that is, an entity subject to legal process in its own identity). In America, corporations have Tax ID numbers, which serve (for tax purposes, though not for Social Security itself) a purpose similar to Social Security numbers.
