4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source.
Posts which titles don’t match the source won’t be removed, but the autoMod will notify you, and if your title misrepresents the original article, the post will be deleted. If the site changed their headline, the bot might still contact you, just ignore it, we won’t delete your post.

10. Don't copy entire article in your post body
For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.
And the only thing that matters: "Trump's little butthole gremlin crawled out of his crack to comment: Lies! Democrat Lies! He never said this!!" and all the Magoos nodded in agreement at the absolute truth provided by an unbiased cult member.
Wtf are funerals that expensive?
They can be, sadly. It depends where you live, where you have someone buried, and what services and coffin and whatnot you get. But yeah, the funeral business in the US is pretty crazy greedy. $60k is definitely on the higher end. According to a quick Google, my state's average funeral cost is around $8k, with the total cost (including mortuary services, etc) around $20k.
Yeah but it's gotta be cheaper for Mexicans, right? (/s, obviously)
The hell. What if your wage is 10k a year. Ie. you’re on disability benefits or social security. Will my family have to bury me in the backyard?
That is the average, not the median. The median looks a lot different (cheaper):
Not allowed to do that
But cremation is cheaper
We don’t really have a couple thousand saved up to throw at a cremation either. Urgh. Capitalism sucks.
the man is a completely amoral, psycho-sociopathic narcissist
"No, 60k is to bury a DEAD Mexican. The ones fucking generally don't want to be buried"
Like he'd pay any bill ever
Aw he's trying to shout like a lil tough guy but he's just unhinging that beta jaw for the ol "arnold palmer", as he calls it.
“It doesn’t cost 60,000 bucks to bury a f---ing Mexican!” Is this trump admitting to murdering mexicans? Or at least knowing how much it cost to bury them afterwards?
Don is a nasty POS, fuck him and all his supporters.
