The Relationship between China Culture and Endowment Insurance System

Filial piety is a very important element in China traditional culture. It can be said that it is filial piety that constructs the social ethics of "monarch, monarch, minister, father and son".

The elderly in China rely on their families to provide for the elderly and their children to take care of them, which is related to the agricultural production mode that relies on land. The object of human labor is land, not crops. When people get old, they lose their ability to work, and the old-age care is borne by children who can continue to work.

The two factors that make it easier for urban population to be supported by society are wage system and social endowment insurance. Old people also have income, and the old-age insurance given by the society is returned.

The resistance of traditional culture to the change of old-age care model is actually not great, and the key is the problem of economic ability. Once the economy allows, it is natural for the elderly to change their minds.
