The problem with the system in paragraph 1 is the "most people", since those who are not "most" will likely end up needing to be supported somewhere. The portion of these financial costs born by the government has to be factored in, and the social costs have to be considered.
The problem with paragraph 2 is practical - you'll lose public support.

I'm not disagreeing with what you say. However, I think that the expenditure of supporting the people in paragraph 1 would be lower overall than the cost of paying social security to all recipients under the current system.
I agree with your assessment of paragraph2, which is why I am not running for Congress.
