My family has given up funerals. An inexpensive cremation and urn is all that’s expected, but even that will run up to a few hundred bucks.
And who is responsible for it? My wife is carrying her mother’s urn around, and someday I’ll be responsible for my parents’. Then we’ll go, and that’s FIVE sets of remains being passed down to my son! What’s he supposed to do with all these old dead people?
Scatter the ashes some place real nice.
Plan to scatter from the get go and save a bunch of money not buying an urn. Cardboard box and a plastic bag from the crematorium.
Where I live pretty much everyone will have insurance that covers funeral costs. It costs about 5 euros per month. If they don’t have insurance the money they left in their bank account or their property will cover it. As with pretty much everything else, this sounds like a problem specifically created by the industry to rip people off.
Always has been.
When I’m dead just throw me in the trash
Harvest my organs and then Weekend at Bernie’s me until I can become an extra on a zombie movie.
Prop me up beside the jukebox.
I guess I’ll keep living then and save up.
It’s called disappearing in remote woods or a deep lake with a note instructing people not to bother looking. Sheesh, stupid Americans over-complicating simple shit again.
Now? It’s been too much for too long…
You know you can just not claim the body

Death has kind of always been expensive.
Ossuaries are basically just piles of bones from people not prestigious enough to find a permanent burrial site.

Well, you seem like a remarkably ignorant person. Welcome to my block list.
“We did that!”
And really they did it mostly by virtue of their combined efforts to impose racial capitalism and imperialism upon the world. I.e., they don’t even think enough about the proletariat to actively make dying more expensive for us, they just let it happen.
Capitalism isn’t failing, it’s doing as expected, and everyone has made sure things get worse. Just that the GQP have accelerated.
