Have you ever heard of the shady funeral parlors that have recently been exposed on the Internet? It's outrageous! A flower costs 688 yuan, and even the cost of burying your parents is tens of thousands of yuan.
It's really infuriating to talk about it. A few days ago, a woman exposed on the Internet all kinds of injustice suffered in the funeral home after her father's death. Judging from the list of charges she provided, it was simply a well-designed game of "blackmail"! When you enter the funeral home, you will be charged for anything you touch, such as wreaths, firecrackers, and paper money, all of which are counted on the bill.
The most puzzling thing is that a flower costs 688 yuan, while the same online only costs about 200 yuan, the price difference is really outrageous! What is even more outrageous is that the staff of the funeral home will also take the initiative to promote various "necessary" services, such as the need to place gold ingots in the urn, otherwise it will affect the fortune of the deceased's descendants.
Who would have to deal with their fortune at such a time? As a result, many family members were so frightened by this statement that they hurried to buy it. Funeral parlors really treat the dead as a big business! Next, let's look at the other charging items. For example, there is an additional charge for just laying a carpet and placing an arch; There are two types of coffin carriers: manpower and machinery, and the price is naturally very different.
What's even more outrageous is that in the whole funeral process, just two umbrellas will be charged 136 yuan! Seeing this, I believe many people will involuntarily burst into anger. Even for the most ordinary urns, the funeral home has given a sky-high fee plan, and the price is as high as 12,600 yuan! If you want a high-end urn with "five cranes to the top", you have to empty your family.
What's even more ironic is that even in cemeteries, funeral homes deliberately avoid them because of the meager profits. Instead, there are some high-priced private cemeteries, and the cost can easily exceed 10,000 yuan, who can afford it? I can understand that funeral homes need to bear some necessary operating costs. But the problem is that they have completely abandoned human care and turned a funeral into a blatant commercial scam.
For families who have just lost a loved one, this kind of "extortion" style of charging is undoubtedly worse, making it even more difficult for them to bear the pain of losing a family member. I believe that this unspoken rule of the funeral industry must be broken immediately. We cannot afford to watch funeral homes continue to use the dead as a tool to make money, leaving more families in financial despair.
First of all, the government and relevant departments should introduce stricter price control measures, implement unified pricing standards for funeral services, and put an end to any form of profiteering. Secondly, we must also strengthen the supervision of the entire funeral industry, establish a sound complaint and punishment mechanism, and severely punish once illegal operations are found.
At the same time, we also need to guide the whole society to have a correct understanding of death and funeral from the perspective of education. We need to get rid of those old traditional ideas and not let money be the only criterion that determines a person's final dignity. Instead, we need to teach people to look at death in a more rational and humane way, to respect the last will of each individual, and to let them walk peacefully and with dignity.
I believe that as long as we work together through multiple parties, we will be able to completely eradicate these chaos in the funeral industry, so that everyone can get the care and respect they deserve in the process of birth, old age, sickness and death. Let's work together to make this world a better place!
