When I’m dead, don’t bury me at all
Just pickle my bones in alcohol
An amphora of wine at my head and feet
And then I’m sure my bones will keep

So now dying is more expensive?! What a crazy timeline

But really do you really want to be buried or stuck in a crypt for a few hundred years before we either dig up your bones for development or some natural disaster moves them anyway?

Burn me baby, feed me back in the recycler of Mother Earth without the stuffing around of being forgotten then recycled...

There's also the option of turning your remains into a diamond if you want ostentatiousness.

Dying is not more expensive, just the storage costs for your body if you want long-term accommodation.

Next thing they'll be renting them out. A yearly lease, and your family have to pay to have you dug up and moved every year so they can lease it to someone new. If they can't afford the costs you'll end up stashed in a secret warehouse with bales of "recycling" and barrels of unknown chemicals. The "efficiency" of capitalism at work.

In Germany, if your family doesn't pay the upkeep, your headstone gets tossed and someone else is buried in top of you with a fresh headstone and decorations

Burn me baby, feed me back in the recycler of Mother Earth

Even that's a waste of resources really. The planet doesn't need me as CO2. Just chuck me in a giant craypot and let me be crab food.
