President Xi pointed out that "we should focus on addressing the urgent needs of the people,so that they can share in the fruits of economic,political,cultural,social and ecological development,and have a more direct and tangible sense of gain,happiness and security,so as to promote the all-round development of people and common prosperity of all people".With the rapid growth of China's economy,the contradictions in the field of income distribution have become increasingly prominent.The order of primary distribution is quite chaotic,while the regulation and balance function of redistribution mechanism is weakened,and even "reverse adjustment" appears.In recent years,China has begun to reflect on the theory of "GDP only",and the unfair distribution is a common concern in China.For a long time,China's income gap has been widening,especially for residents in rural areas and low-income groups who do not feel the "tunnel effect" brought by development.The drawbacks of non-market factors accompanying the initial distribution cannot be spontaneously adjusted and contained,resulting in a decrease in residents' happiness.From the perspective of distributive justice,social insurance has alleviated the disadvantages caused by excessively large income distribution gap to some extent,but whether it has a positive effect on residents' subjective well-being remains to be further studied.According to the series data of CGSS and CHARLS,this study mainly investigated the following contents: first,the direct effect of social insurance on residents' subjective well-being.Secondly,the effect of distributive equity on residents' subjective well-being.Thirdly,based on the above,the author further discusses the effect of income redistribution of social insurance on residents' subjective well-being,so as to investigate the effectiveness of social insurance regulation on secondary distribution and the effect of redistribution of social insurance on subjective well-being.From the perspective of social insurance,this study added the variable of distributive equity to the transmission path of social insurance's direct influence on residents' subjective well-being,so as to investigate the mediating effect of distributive equity on the transmission of social insurance and residents' subjective well-being.In addition,due to the high concentration of wealth in China,the income gap is too large,because of the influence of non-market factors,China's income liquidity is reduced,and even brings about the solidification of the wealth level.Therefore,the moderating effect of social class on distributive justice is further investigated.Finally,a moderating mediating effect model is constructed according to the four main variables of social insurance,distributive justice,social class and national happiness.Specifically,first of all,the fair distribution of social insurance,and residents' subjective well-being research,starting from the current situation of the development of social insurance,combing social insurance,distribution,fair and subjective well-being related literature review,and on this basis to explore the happiness of the social insurance effect,the happiness of the income distribution effects,and establish the related theoretical model,based on this,to analyze the fair distribution of social insurance,and the correlation of residents' subjective well-being.Then,on the basis of the above,we will explore the mechanism of social insurance income redistribution and the way to realize the happiness of social insurance and income inequality.By using the model of a mediation effect on social security income redistribution perspective with residents subjective well-being,by using the model of a regulating effect on social security income redistribution,field survey and social class identity built by item,further investigation from the social insurance to the residents' subjective well-being have direct effect and indirect effect of transmission mechanism,adjust the mediation effect of the transmission mechanism.The research on income distribution equity and subjective well-being.First,CGSS data were used for regression analysis of distributive equity and subjective well-being.In the previous literature,different income measurement methods have different results in terms of income variables and subjective well-being.Therefore,this study included three common income measurement methods and drew conclusions by classification.Subsequently,based on different conclusions from the literature on income distribution equity and happiness,this study conducted a lot of heterogeneous discussions on the relevant sensitive indicators.In addition,in order to make the results more robust,CHARLS data were used for verification.As for the transmission effect of income redistribution of social security on subjective well-being,this part focuses on the effect of income redistribution of social security on subjective well-being,rather than the change of time trend.First,CGSS2015 cross-section data were used to explore the impact of social insurance on residents' subjective well-being.The next step is to prove the effect of social security and inequality in income distribution on subjective well-being.It is important to note that this study considers more than a single hierarchical transmission mechanism.In the previous section on transmission mechanism and effect analysis,it has been preliminarily concluded that distributive justice may play an intermediary role in the effect of social insurance on subjective well-being,and some scholars have proposed that the social status of the respondents may play a secondary transmission effect on distributive justice.Therefore,in order to test the hypothesis of this paper,the cross-section Ordered Probit regression model was used to investigate the indirect effect of perceived distribution equity on this transmission path.Second,further analysis of fair income distribution in social insurance and whether has the intermediary effect between residents subjective well-being conduction,here,the combination of the above mentioned social status in the entire transmission system may be associated with the revenue of the modulated,a sense of fairness in the distribution in the model on the basis of regression analysis,field survey and class identity as delivered by a join equation,to examine the mediation effect of socioeconomic factors on the income distribution of regulating effect,eventually to build a mediation effect model.Social insurance has played a role in improving people's livelihood and residents' subjective well-being to a certain extent.Participation in social insurance can effectively raise the level of national happiness and promote a more reasonable distribution of secondary income.In the process of further improving the social security system in the future,the reform of social insurance should be intensified.In particular,under the background of the increasingly serious aging problem in China,the overall planning structure should coordinate the contradiction between the interests of the government,enterprises and individuals,and properly handle the matching of social endowment insurance fund financing mode,so as to further enhance fairness and sustainability.On this basis,according to the research findings,this study from the improvement of social pension,medical insurance,social security funds to put forward specific policy recommendations.In order to realize the balanced development between urban and rural areas in China,from the perspective of income distribution equity,it is of great research value whether the income redistribution function of social insurance can be given full play,so that all the people can share the dividend of reform and development,and then improve the overall happiness of the people.On the basis of emphasizing the guiding significance of reality,this paper has some innovations in the research perspective and economic mechanism,and draws some interesting conclusions.From the perspective of research and economic mechanism,studies on social insurance,income distribution equity and residents' subjective well-being have a direct happiness effect on social insurance.Distribution fair directly effect on the basis of happiness,this article from the fair to as social insurance relationship with residents' subjective well-being in the middle of the conduction of a ring,the distribution of the social insurance regulation effect,under the effect of stacking,affect residents' subjective well-being,cobwebs,to solve the transmission mechanism through which effect,which variables are ultimately affect residents' subjective well-being.This is a further refinement and in-depth study of the income redistribution effect of social security,which enriches the research in this field.The empirical tests yielded some interesting results.From the perspective of the impact of social insurance on residents' subjective well-being,the empirical findings show that: increasing coverage can improve residents' subjective well-being.Improving the difference of "multi-track system" can improve residents' subjective happiness.Different types of insurance have different effects on residents' happiness.The reform of social security system needs to consider the acceptability of residents.After subdividing the types of social endowment insurance,the new rural insurance cannot play a positive role in promoting happiness in 2013.From the inter-provincial data,residents' happiness level is related to participating in social insurance,but the positive relationship between participating in endowment insurance and happiness will be affected by the "comparison effect",while medical insurance will not be affected by the "comparison effect" brought by this factor.The impact of social insurance policies is delayed.When considering the impact of policies on residents' happiness,we should pay special attention to the difference between urban and rural areas.From the perspective of the impact of distributive equity on residents' subjective well-being,empirical findings show that the income gap does not directly affect residents' subjective well-being.The influence of individual absolute income on their subjective well-being is influenced by the "comparison effect".The influence of individual absolute income on their subjective well-being is influenced by whether it exceeds the average level in the social grid Relative income inequality also affects residents' perception of subjective well-being.Family income can alleviate the negative impact of income gap on residents' subjective well-being From the perspective of the redistribution effect of social insurance income on residents' subjective well-being,empirical findings show that distributive equity can serve as an intermediate link between social insurance and subjective well-being effect transmission,while social insurance has a secondary regulating effect on distributive equity This study also empirically tested that the mediating effect of the sense of distributive justice is mediated by the identification of social class.For the population with a low sense of social distributive justice and a high sense of social distributive justice,respectively,the identification distribution of high social class and low social class positively moderates the mediating effect.
