I think they have some nerve!! Here in the US we have to PAY for our gravesites and headstones and perpetual care. This does not come cheap!! That's like the gov't asking us to share our house with a stranger after all the years we slaved to pay for it and the taxes, etc......worse actually because at least when we're alive we can defend ourselves against injustices. The dead have no such recourse.

Reused graves. I'd be happy to share my space with a stranger. I should't won't be there often, anyhow. Since my spirit will probably be in school somewhere, learning what I should have learned while I had a body, I probably won't get many days off. And I like company, so fill 'er up.
