I don't believe the SS benefit would be anywhere near as large as the insurance policy I carry. It might provide enough to cover the basics but it certainly wouldn't cover my daughter's college costs or give my wife enough to pay off the mortgage and maintain our current lifestyle.
I'll have to check the last SS statement I got when I'm home to see the estimated benefits.
