    Its even worse, selling your body for someone else’s profit. I was just recently in a weird knickknack store that had taxidermy peacocks, butterflies, gems, minerals, etc… But one of the ‘etc’ was a human skeleton that the person donated their body to science in early 1900’s only to end up being for sale for the low price of $9,000 after the medical organization they donated their body to was either done with it, or the organization dissolved, or who knows what…

    Pretty shitty that its legal to sell people’s fucking remains for a profit…
