Bodies (Optional)

I have gotten ... hmmm .... hmmmmmm ... hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm ... interesting feedback from students about the money that is in the "Biden Stimulus" package for the Disaster Relief Fund and funeral expenses related to COVID-19.

This allocation is addressing a ridiculously large problem that most people are unaware of, that a few people want to deny, and that the politicians and bureaucrats would rather ignore.

Anyway, if you're interested, everything is on the internet somewhere. So I bring you the videolog Ask a Mortician, and her post from 3 weeks ago about the problems they're having in Los Angeles.

And if you don't know, the COVID-19 waves have been hitting different places in different magnitudes at different times ... and LA got it really bad this winter.

If you had told me a year ago that this sort of thing would be a macroeconomic problem, I would not have believed you (although there were videos back then of crematoria in China running 24 7).

And yes, AOC is right in that video clip towards the end. If you are the next of kin for someone who dies of COVID-19, you are responsible for covering the daily costs of "storage" until the industry can catch up.
