It's because of US brokerage laws; same thing applies for buying commodities on tradeking.com, etrade.com, etc.

Hmm, interesting. I went to sign up, but I wasn't comfortable giving out my SSN.

You can try https://localbitcoins.com/buy-bitcoins-online/ - it's like ebay for bitcoin, so look for sellers with high feedback rating. You can either meet face to face or do an online transaction across bank accounts and btc wallets.
