Social security or business?

Social security is better, because the state forces enterprises to pay for employees, and the expenses are shared by enterprises and employees, but all commercial insurance expenses must be paid by themselves. It can be said that social security is the foundation and commercial insurance is the perfection and supplement. Therefore, if you have economic conditions, you can buy additional commercial insurance as a supplement.
