The Twisted Business of Death: The Funeral Industry | Corporate Casket
Death is an uncomfortable topic to discuss but it’s an inevitability, whether we like it or not. And unfortunately, if you don’t have a death plan of any kind, it means that your loved ones, while grieving you, will have to navigate a largely broken and difficult industry after your passing.

Welcome to the Corporate Casket, a semiweekly series where bad businesses go to die. We will discuss any and everything from bad charities, terrible CEOs, and businesses that have a lot to hide.
The funeral industry is expensive, exploitative, and refuses to change. Those within the industry want to make a difference, but red tape and old laws keep them from doing so. Why is this? Why can’t the funeral industry adapt?
