I do not believe that employers should be allowed to ask for your facebook password. There could be sensitive information on you account in messages that you really don't want anyone to see. Things like how you feel after your abortion, how life has been since your gender reassignment surgery, or your strained relationship with someone. That is not anyone's business but yours and the person with whom the conversation is being held with.
I only see two ways to possibly combat this. Both involve telling your perspective boss you have no account. One way is to deactivate your account, this way you do not have an account the employers can snoop around in. The second option would be to use an alias. If your name is Sammie Joe, that is the name your employer is going to look for. If you go by an alias of Crappy Burritos, no employer is going to search for that.
