My friend works at a funeral home. He said the most expensive urn costs eighty and sells for eight thousand. I asked the family members, don’t they think it’s too expensive? He said, “The family members won’t bargain. Bargaining would make them look unfilial. The funeral home makes money from a ‘filial piety tax.’” I asked, “Then you’re not afraid of retribution?” He said, “My monthly salary is two thousand eight hundred—retribution has to start with the boss.” Later, he quit. It wasn’t because he suddenly developed a conscience. It was because the boss had started to withhold even his two thousand eight hundred.
