I think it's possible the global economy literally could not take the expense of actually making everything secure.

Definitely not if it was implemented in a big-bang, but a more gradual approach might work.

The counterpoint of what will the costs be if we carry on with the current level of security and drive IT systems more into everyone's lives has to be considered too.
