Not if people are allowed to opt out, because there will be no more "as is" anymore. The "as is" will have changed drastically.
I think Social Security needs some serious overhaul and rethinking, but unless the plan is to phase SS out altogether (which I don't think is a good idea), I think allowing opt outs and allowing privatization will make things worse, not better.
